Very nice cozy, clean cabin. The hot tub was very relaxing and private, but with a great view. The cabin has everthing you need and the wood stove was great for those chilly evenings. We very much enjoyed our stay!
Very nice and clean cabin with great amenities. Authentic fireburning stove inside. A little chilly at night so bring layers to keep warm and slippers! Cozy in the evening.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
The good: Beautiful setting, charming old cabin that was stocked with most things you’d need. It has a hot tub, modern bathroom with roomy shower. It’s quiet and peaceful. Loved the towel warmer, large outdoor space, lots of towels and washcloths, good a/c and contact free check in.The not so good: the hot tub was empty and being worked on when we arrived so it couldn’t be used the first night at all until it warmed up. When it was ready to be used on night two, half of the jets didn’t work.While a sweet little cabin, it wasn’t the cleanest place on earth. When we pulled out the sofa bed, there was dirt, poker chips and trash inside with a dirty mattress cover. The area rug was REALLY dirty, and the windows were full of fingerprints. There was garbage on the property and in the firepit. Nothing major but contributed to an overall feeling of being unclean. The mattresses could use an upgrade. Terribly uncomfortable.That said, with a little better upkeep it’s worth going. Despite the hiccups we had a good time.
