Hi Rick,
Thank you for the five-star review! We’re happy to hear you had a great experience. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
Warm regards,
Casago Team
The cabin was excellent and had everything we needed for our week long stay. The hot tub was nice to have after a day of hiking. Would love to stay again!
House was great! Cozy, and welcoming. They had music and lights on and everything was spotless and perfect. Jacuzzi out back was hot and ready to go, and the fireplace was a perfect touch for the cold winter night!

The Shabby Shack
This home is a shabby Shack. We did not stay there. I told the property manager what he needs to know.
