Cabin was as described. Clean and set up ready to use. Boat parking was great. Plenty of room and electric hook up available. We will definitely be staying again when in town.
Nice little spot, very convenient to the boat at goose pond only a few minutes drive! They have covered boat storage and plug ins for charging your boat!
The location of the cabin is convenient to everything you need for a vacation on the river. Grocery stores, restaurants, public access spots are only a short trip away. It's right at the highway, but noise was never once an issue. We greatly enjoyed the firepit and loved that the amenities provided inside met every need for a weekend getaway. The only issue we had was that there is one AC unit in the living room, so I would keep the bedroom doors open at night so you don't sweat to death. 10/10 would love to come back anytime!
The cabin was nice for a short stay. I wasn’t aware that the cabin was located on a main road which was very busy. For a longer stay, I would have wanted to be off a main road for more privacy.
Once suggest I have, is to have the porch cleaned before and after each guest. We could not enjoy the porch due to too many webs and it was not clean.
Husband & I stayed for a long weekend. Location was close to stores, had everything we needed & many boat launches. Although we didnt have our boat this weekend, it wouldn't have been an issue. Covered boat parking with power/lights. Cabin is on a busy hwy, road noise was loud during the day. Easy to find & easy/fast communication with owners. Would rent here again but only a cabin towards the back. Glad we stayed, thanks for having us!
Cabin was very nice. The biggest drawback was the road noise. We stayed in cabin 5. There is no fire pit at that cabin. Host was very helpful and responsive.
