Perfect location and very clean

Check in was easy, Casey answered my questions right away, and the cabin was so nice and clean! The property was in the perfect location to see and do so many things and there was a family of deer that would be on the backyard at night. Highly recommend staying here!

Incredible weekend getaway

Casey was fantastic to work with. The property was clean and the view all around us was incredible. Pretty centrally located to most attractions in the area so no long drives for day trips. We can’t wait to come back!

Disappointed

Tried several times weeks prior to our trip to get info from the property manager,no response at all!! Tried calling several times,left voicemail,sent text and sent 2 messages through vrbo...nothing!! When we arrived we had no code for the keyless entry after driving 10+ hours,called and luckily they answered. Said they emailed day of the trip but I had no email. The water smelled like dirt so after showering thats what you smelled like,ceiling in the loft was so low you literally had to crawl on the floor so we had to use the pull out couch which was extremely uncomfortable. There were lots of flies inside the cabin,dried coffee under the coffee maker on the counter,shouldn't be the case since there's a cleaning fee!!!
