The cabin was perfect for our stay. It was close enough to go to events but far enough away to enjoy the quit area. The cabin was easy to locate and we had no issues while staying there. The hosts have tons of items for you ranging from a full kitchen, extra blankets, games, reading material, and a great fire pit.

We loved the easy assess to cabin, cleanness, and the layout. I felt like the glass doors on the bottom floor needed some window treatment since I was the one using it. And the chairs at the dining table on main floor were very uncomfortable. But that's just my thoughts. My friends had no complaints!!!!
