Great location, great neighborhood. Love the lake and the hiking trails in the neighborhood. Would be a great stay in the summer when the pool is open.

Overall the cabin layout is terrific. Directions and listing accurate. Only Complaint is spiderwebs and cobwebs everywhere outside. Couldn’t walk around deck or anywhere in property without walking into a cobweb.

Vacation

Our experience of the cabin and property was very good. It was nice to be able to walk outside the door and go for short hikes around different ponds and to a waterfall on one side of the development. Saw a few deer and other wild life. Our heat went out in the cabin and the management company purchased electric heaters for us to use. It was still a little chilly in the cabin due to the low temperatures outside. The management company worked to compensate us for the few days it was really chilly.

Cabin was great. Host was wonderful! Will stay again. To get to the lake, it’s a bit of a hike down. The washing machine needs serviced. Doesn’t spin properly. But stuff like that happens. Drive up was good. A bear did get in the trash cans outside. We saw a ton of deer. So don’t drive fast. We didn’t catch nothing but brem in the lakes. No trout. We caught a ton of trout in the creek down at the gates, near the welcome center shed. There’s a picnic area down there and my sons walked the creek and caught trout like crazy. Oh, the driveway is rocky and horseshoe shaped. It’s a little steep. My tires spun out a bit going around it and back up to get out.
