The cabin was nice. The place was peaceful and clean. We stayed for four days but the furniture was very uncomfortable and run down. My husband is tall and the furniture was not comfortable at all! The toilet was a short one. Bring your own toiletries. There are none.If you are looking for a big fishing trip good luck, zero fish caught! Maybe that was on us! Other then that area was quaint!

We loved the property so much this booking is actually for the second week. We were there through Winter Storm Fern and it was so beautiful! Barbara and Roy were fantastic hosts. The entire property is very well maintained. Our cabin was so cozy and peaceful. Exactly what we needed. We will return many more times!
