We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the heaters. The units were working properly, but it seems there was a misunderstanding, and a request for assistance was not relayed or made. We were not aware you needed someone to come out, and we regret that this impacted your stay. Your feedback is appreciated, and we hope to provide a smoother experience in the future.

Inaccurate description, multiple problems with the cabin
This was not a good place to stay. The power went out frequently and for many hours at a time. When asking neighbors about their power, they stated this happens frequently. When the power goes out, there is no water to the house, so we were unable to cook, shower or get drinking water.
The house was nice, but there were bug problems and multiple spider webs in the house.
I can't blame this on the listing, as air conditioning is not listed, but the house was very hot and the loss of power disabling the fans made it nearly unbearable.
We reached out to the property manager about the loss of power, but no one ever got back to us.
The listing states Lake front, but the lake is not visible and is at least 300 yards away across multiple roads. I thought lake front meant at least lake view and accessible.
The cabin is spacious and well equipped. The frequent loss of power, lack of communication and inaccessibility to the lake were the main problems.
