Overall, we had an excellent time. We were expecting a very bare bones experience and were pleasantly surprised with how nice the cabin and the grounds were. My only complaints were we were told there would be firewood available at our cabin for the weekend and it was clear no one had stayed there for a while. We had to scavenge our own dry firewood from elsewhere on the property. There was another issue with another person renting a cabin near us, but that was out of Linda's control. Overall a very pleasant and relaxing stay in the woods right off of the river. My only suggestion would be clearer communication and maybe be prepared to bring your own firewood.

Rachel, you stated there was no firewood and you had to scrounge around to find wood. Prior to your check-in you asked about firewoid. I stated our wood was stored outside and would be wet. You were welcome to get dry kindly from the woods. I also told you where to find the big pile of firewood which my maintanence man showed you where it was. Also the cabin was sprayed for bugs and cleaned the day before you checked in. Also freshly mowed the day before. This is strictly a Primitive Cabin which I clearly define in the description before you book.

We just needed to stop over somewhere where pets were allowed so this was fine. Communication was prompt and the cabin and space did the trick, however they made some odd choices like not having a smoke alarm on the cabin ( but left on a small cafe table without batteries despite there being a spot on the ceiling for it to be twisted in). Two very small tables and they chose to leave a collection of discarded electronics ,like battery powered lights, and a bible on a tiny nightstand table that doesn’t have any drawers to take up that space. The bed is fine, we noticed a tear in the mattress topper. Things that could be easily wiped down like a picnic table, are not. There are some things not suited for not being left outdoors, just there like metal folding chairs against a tree. Patio chairs with mildew cushions I wouldn’t let my dogs sit on, and barbed wire sticking out of the ground. The area around is overgrown which is a shame, a little trimming would open up the view of the river below. There is a fairly clean and stocked outhouse and faucet across from the cabins, though the outhouse doesn’t lock and there’s no light inside, battery operated or otherwise. None of these things have anything to do with it being “primitive”, it’s just somewhat neglected.
