Weekend trip
This was a quick weekend trip to get out of town. The cabin was cute and exactly as the pictures described. In hindsight we should have looked for a place with a larger bed and full size sofa but that’s on us.

Clean, quiet and cozy cabin
Cabin was very nice. Only small inconveniences, like mentioned in earlier reviews, shower head not great, no night stand by bed, no sharp knives in kitchen, and dishes and pans not great. We enjoyed our stay.

We understand that sometimes the little things can get missed. It happens. But there were a lot of little things. From cleanliness to things being broken. It’s a wonderful cabin and the staff was quick to try to remedy some of the situations. There’s just room for improvement.

We had a nice overnight stay. It was clean and comfortable. Would recommend getting rid of bench by fire pit as it's a safety hazard, could fall through easily.

Cabin Stay
Very cozy and pleasant cabin. The bed was actually the most comfortable ive slept in outside of my own. Couple of downsides are needs new cooking pans. The frying pan was the worst. Not at all flat anymore so mafe cooking difficult. Shower stall is so small there is no way to keep wayer from getting outside of curtain when getting in. Could use a handheld showerhead to alleviate that. Coyld also use some hooks near shower for hanging towels. Overall a good experience tho.

Just what the doctor ordered 😊
This quiet getaway was exactly what we needed. It is remote but had all the comforts of home. Only complaints would be the shoeerhead needs replaced with a wand so you dont get continually sprayed on too of your head whike in the small shower. Also, the mattress and box springs are very old and dont lend much support. Overall we enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely stay again.

Disappointed
Showed up and the place had not been cleaned. 1.5 hours later it was cleaned but they still didn’t take out the trash. Not a big deal, but not ideal. Fridge broke and ruined $400 worth of food. Also, the shower head is so clogged the water pressure is in thin high pressure streams that make taking a shower so uncomfortable that it’s impossible. To stay in long enough to wash yourself properly. We left a day earlier than our checkout. Texted the owner and still have not received a response a day and a half later. Will not stay here again, completely ruined trip. Wasted over $1,200 and mine and my gf’s limited and precious PTO.

The cabin was beautiful, yes the shower is small and the mattress is worn but that isn't as important to me as the peace and quiet this setting provides. I was able to relax and enjoy the peace this location provides. My husband and I will definitely be back!

Very cute place
Very clean. Very nice get away. My only hope is they get a new mattress. The well in the center was deep and uncomfortable. However everything about the rest of the stay was amazing. I am new to this so I didn’t really know how to reach out and being if to his attention so I’m sure judging from how clean the place was he will take care of it .

Our stay was ruined due to operational issues. The refrigerator broke. We called it in early in the morning. We were told it would quickly be taken care of. They even called us back asking for permission to move our food to another refrigeration unit. We gave permission at about 8:30 am to do so. When we got back to the cabin around 4:00 pm we opened the door to the smell of spoiled food. A maintenance man showed up shortly afterwards bringing a mini drink frig. Apparently a full size refrigerator was ordered but wouldn’t arrive for several days. We were not updated on the situation and our food was left to spoil. I asked for some compensation, but nothing was given. Not only were we out the cost of all the food, but were further inconvenienced by having to drive back to town to buy more food. The trip for fast food took over an hour. The maintenance man was very friendly and even fixed the hot tub that not operating properly the first night. Due to these two issues, we left not enjoying what could have been a nice trip.
