This is a classic, old-school "up north" cabin, with everything you need for a comfortable stay without the frills. There's very little traffic on the road, so it's peaceful. There's a lot to do in the area. Cell phone service in the area is pretty bad, so your navigation app might not quite get you there but it's easy enough to find visually.We liked the place and would stay again if the opportunity comes up.

Small quiet and cabin in the woods! Loved that it was not in a campground or by one. We had a relaxing time. It was clean. Bring your own lawn chairs a shovel to clean up after your dog and towels.

First the cabin was filthy dust 1:2 inch on everything, had to wash the floors 3 times and still couldn’t get all the dirt up. The kitchen counters were filthy, my towel was brown/ greasy after cleaning them. Such a cute cabin but no maintenance being done , the back door is falling off, the tiles in the kitchen are loose on the floor, fire pit falling apart and hadn’t been cleaned out for ages. The faucets need to be replaced in the kitchen can’t even move them around and the sprayer worked sometimes, Hadn’t been on a vacation for years, really was looking forward to this and it was awful. The host was told but didn’t do anything about it. Then after our first week the well pump went out, we were offered to go back and forth to another place to shower or we could leave. The host refunded the last 4 days of our trip but absolutely no other compensation for all the trouble we had been put though. Our vacation was totally destroyed by this man!! He showed no compassion that we had to find another place to stay those 4 days just said he was sorry and hung up !
