QUIET and relaxing!

This is a quiet cabin in the country which was the perfect base to visit Shawnee National Forest from. It had A/C, WIFI, and QUIET which are all the things I was looking for. My husband and I enjoyed our stay, and our hosts were great to bring over a new coffee maker when the one in the cabin stopped working. It was a nice and relaxing trip with easy access to dining and scenery. Really enjoyable.

No Mans Land

Location was definitely off the beaten path, it took ne 30 minute after we arrived to get a code to enter in a pouring rain. Once inside the refrigerator freezer wasn't clean, the linen on the bed had pet hair on it, 1 garbage bag and now windows in the bedroom's except one.
