After a fantastic weekend away at the Cardinal lodge, my family and I were very sorry to see it through our rear view mirror. Everything about the property was outstanding, Our host was exceedingly accommodating, and very responsive to any questions that arose. I would highly recommend this property and any others he may manage to anybody thinking about renting. The Property was amazingly clean, All of the things that you need in the kitchen were there. Only thing we needed to supply was food. Everything else was available to us. There was a gorgeous view of the night sky, such that it wasn't necessary for us to travel to the nearby observatory, we could take it in from the rear porch. There's a spectacular spot just outside the cabin. Stayed away for bonfire, include seating and fire pits. Was a spectacular evening spent there. Large size Blackstone griddle on the rear porch with all needed tools was a welcome treat and made short work of breakfast and dinner for a family of six. The internet there cell coverage in the area is very spotty, at least for us. However, the supplied Wi-Fi internet was fast and collected well with the various devices that we brought with us. Smart TV has all the streaming apps along with downstairs second living area. If you could call it that,, my boys were thrilled with the Sega Genesis that was downstairs as well as the blueberry player.All in all it was a spectacular weekendI look forward to returning in the future.
