This was the third time staying at this property over the last 5 years. The house was not quite as clean as the other times we have been there. It was not horrible by any means but definitely wasn’t spotless like normal. We will definitely continue to stay at this property for future visits

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Such a great home. Everything we needed. Great location, easy access to everything, while far enough off the highway for quiet. Nightly visits by deer is a plus.

Great location, spacious yet cozy

We have stayed in this area several times and the property was easy to access and had plenty of parking for multiple trucks and trailers. It comfortably fit 8 adults. Had one minor maintenance issue which was quickly handled. Would recommend!

Great location, nice (but dirty) house, owner nonresponsive

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The owner was very responsive during the booking, payment process. However, this property is listed as sleeping 12 (we had 6 in our group). One guest opted to use the sofa sleeper, which we found to be broken. Sent the owner a message through the app and via text as soon as it was discovered the first night. In the 8 nights we were there, the owner never responded. The house wasn't clean, with a pile of children's clothes left in one bedroom; and I pulled the scissors out of the knife block in the kitchen to find hair caked on them. There were other aread of the house that were not clean and the dryer needs attention.

Outdoorsy get a way with views of wildlife

Great location and price for what we got. I cleaned some of the light fixtures and vents because I couldn’t look at the build up of dust and left some furniture pulled out from its spot to get cleaned under it other than that the house was well equipped with kitchen supplies and towels and everything else was spot on from description. We would rent this place again!

Yearly R&R

This was an excellent cabin and location. The back deck was so big and quiet overlooking the pond and wildlife. The hot tub was in perfect working order-the cover might need to be fixed but the unit was great. Fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms-plenty of hot water for six people - never ran out.

Beautiful scenery. Good location

The scenery and wild life were amazing. The location was perfect for our motorcycle trip. A little gravel but it is treated. The cabin had everything we needed but could use some cleaning and maintenance.
