Great Location

The cabin is in a convenient location near town and parks. The first night we had an issue with hot water. We contacted the owner and he quickly resolved the issue. We would recommend this place to our family and frends.

Perfectly cozy

Everything about this place was perfect. The new white living room furniture kind of took me out of the cabin feel but comfy nonetheless. The brand new mattress in the big bedroom was a dream. The mattress on the futon it's too stiff to sleep on. The smaller bedrooms mattress was decent. All the supplies in the kitchen was great to have. We had already started planning next year's trip and staying at these cabins before we even left. Highly recommend.
