Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great location, host readily available! The WiFi/tv didn’t work, but the host stepped us through things to try and had a technician to the cabin at 7:30 on a Friday night to get it working. Not super clean.. water spots on the kitchen window, hair/lint on the bathroom floor, empty water bottle in our bedroom when we checked in. Plenty of towels and linens, laundry is a huge bonus! The kids had a blast sledding!
