There is no better location for our annual stay in West Union. Sharla and Galen are perfect hosts. Everything you would need if forgotten is provided. Contact with the hosts is easy. The only request is if they could do something about the weather during our stay...8 below zero is tough to take!!

Perfect Cute Cabin

The cabine was in the perfect location as it was close to all of the places I needed to go while I stayed for the weekend. It was a little confusing finding the correct door to get into but that was a very minor issue and did not cause any problems once we figured it out. Still deserves 5 stars. It was clean, organized, labels on everything, information clearly available to know everything we needed for our stay. I wish I would have had more time to enjoy the cabin as there was plenty to enjoy with games, TV, Internet, and it was so comfortable. Well worth the reservation.
