Great place

The house was nicely done. Everything we could have needed was in the kitchen. Even a crock pot (I took mine in case). The water pressure and temp was very good. We didn’t run out of hot water even with 7 people showering. We enjoyed the corn hole, canoes, etc. No one complained about the beds, so I’d say they were satisfactory.

Decent place with caveats

The place isn't as beautiful as the photos make it appear. Not sparkling clean and a few lights dont work. No dishwasher either. Other than that we didnt have any troubles. Recommend it if you dont have better choices available. Kids did enjoy the front yard.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 Nov, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear your kids enjoyed the front yard and had a good time overall! We’re sorry to learn the cabin didn’t fully meet your expectations — cleanliness and maintenance are very important to us. Since your stay, we’ve addressed the lighting issues and made updates to ensure everything is in great working order. While the cabin doesn’t have a dishwasher, we’ll make sure that’s clearly noted in the listing for future guests. We truly appreciate your honest feedback — it helps us continue improving Cedar Wood Lodge for future stays. Warm regards, Jennifer
