I fell like the shower head needed to be replaced and we have to turn the gas on and off on the stove that was kind of inconvenient other than that our stay was good.

It looks nice….

When I first arrived it looked like a nice place. Then I found out it wasn’t very nice. The cupboards are full of the hosts food which forces you to put your food on the counter. That leaves you no where eat. The stools at the counter have no backs and no cushion.Even a picnic table would have been nice .There’s a electrical problem in each bedroom. One of the fixtures fan surges and in the other bedroom the light blinks. The coffee pot leaves grounds in your coffee.When I told the host she told us how to fix it like we don’t know how to make coffee.The host has a for sale sign on the driveway bringing people to the cabin . Some of them where drunk and high. My trip was awful.My friend came all the way from Colorado for that.She couldn’t sleep because she was afraid the drunks might show up later.

Lorene, thanks for the feedback. The for sale sign was for our boat and I promptly removed it, as I have no control over other people, I appreciate you mentioning the people stopping. As for the electrical issue, the fan was brand new, and we called the electrician back to address it. Ty for that also! I DO make it clear in the listing that this was a second home. And the pictures on the site are exactly as the cabin is. We try to accomodate our Guests needs, and all this feedback came on the morning of your checkout! Communicating to Hosts asap is important so we can address any issues immediately. We appreciate your feedback and recommended other Hotels for your stay next visit to our lovely City. Stay well and happy!

A wonderful and accommodating host! However, the cabin had so many things in it , it was hard to find space for our things as we were there for a couple weeks and had lots of baggage. But the location worked very well for us.
