It was cute

It was a cute little cabin on the older side , seemed as no one has been in there for a while by the smell and the towels. Close to the town stuff . Me and my family definitely enjoyed the stay.might see you next year :)

Cozy Cabin

We went with my 2 daughters and 2 grandkids. The cabin is a cozy 2bd. We enjoyed the little fenced backyard since the grand kids are 2yo and 4yo. Big front yard fenced in too! Nice deck for coffee in the morning. Fireplace is gas which surprised us but still fun and warm. Couches in living room comfy and pull out to beds. Quiet neighborhood. We drove to The Village 10 mins away and so neat to see!

It was okay

I expected to get some work done because the information on the cabin said WiFi was available. We couldn't get a connection, and the router couldn't be located so we weren't able to reset it. The cabin was older than I expected and had a weird layout.

Hi, Deborah! Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the WiFi during your stay. We understand how important a reliable connection is, especially when you’re trying to get work done. We'll make sure to address this issue by checking the router and updating our instructions for future guests. We’re also sorry to hear that the cabin’s layout and age didn’t meet your expectations. Our cabins do have unique characteristics, and we strive to clearly describe them in our listings. Your comments will help us improve, and we hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future.
