Great cabin!

We adored this cabin. It's just about 5 miles from town and secluded just enough. Will was very generous and responsive to all inquiries. Honestly, this was the best VRBO experience we've had. There were ample baking dishes and utensils, even spices as it was thanksgiving. They had lotion and tissues readily available which by day 2 we were again so thankful. Excellent stay!

A Great Place

This is our second visit to Moose Lodge and loved it every bit as much as the first time....If you're looking for rustic, secluded and cozy, this is the place for you. We had a minor problem and property manager Chris was prompt to respond and resolve the issue quickly. Had several texts with Will and as always he was so accommodating with every question I had. We love this cabin and plan a return visit.
