For the most part we enjoyed our stay. The location is serene, the horses are lovely, and the bed is quite comfortable. Access to fishing spots and hiking trails was wonderful, the TV came loaded with every streaming service you might want to use, and the WiFi was strong enough that my wife and I worked remotely for several days and never had a hiccup in service.However, the cabin needs some significant improvements. The kitchen provisions were inadequate. The only available pots and pans are very old, deeply scratched teflon pans, and baking sheets in the oven storage were covered with mice droppings. Many dishes and cookware were poorly washed from previous stays, and so we had to re-wash everything we used. I know it's "no frills", but I don't think clean dishes are a frill.It was cold during our stay, so we ran the heater most days and nights. The gas line has some kind of flow problem, and the heater blasts a VERY loud and VERY high pitched scream into the room about once every hour or two, for about 15 seconds. We slept VERY poorly. Guest book logs show that multiple visitors have complained about the screaming heater before, and apparently the issue remains unresolved.Check in and check out were straightforward, but communication was poor. We were instructed to download a proprietary app to view all facility information we needed (we didn't). With a little work we managed to figure out this information without the app. Also we booked via phone and made clear we were bringing a pet and had no problem with the pet fee, but the pet fee wasn't charged until a week after our departure because "The cleaner said you had a pet and she charged extra for the cleaning", which felt a little accusatory. Tried to arrange a later check out after the work day but got told we'd incur a $37.50 late check out fee. It's $54 per night, so a charge of almost an extra night, which seems ridiculous. We left a day early and probably would not stay he
