Beautiful and Cozy Secluded Cabin
This cabin was super cozy, the view was gorgeous, and the owner Mark was amazing! Mark made sure we had everything we needed. We didnt even notice or hear any neighbors and the birds are so wonderful to listen to in the morning. My family is pretty tall so the bathroom was a little small, but worth it for such a beautiful and secluded cabin. If you're looking for cozy and away from civilization like we were, this is it!!!

The lodge
No complaints, bathroom was a bit small for taller people but no big deal. Also the rental next door is extremely close and the neighbors who came in Friday were extremely loud. We came to fish so we had early morning starts. We could hear the neighbors into the early morning hours. If this is what you're coming to do keep in mind this could be a possibility for you as well. I would have called the property owner but there was no AT&T cell service. Overall great place to stay and there is a boat ramp within 10 minutes.

Unplugged and disconnected
The listing for this property description was spot on. It was definitely remote as there was a long road/roads to get back to the property. I think that’s some thing that anybody who rents his property needs to be aware of. You definitely want to get there in the daytime. There is no service once you get to the cabin so trying to get out of there and map your way anywhere is very difficult. If you can remember what road you came back in on when you get to that road service will start on your phone. Inside was ok. Not dirty but maybe more outdated. Owner was exceptionally responsive each time I emailed and sent a bunch of great info on the property before I got there. I would recommend this location.
