The only thing that would have made this stay even better would have been a blender! The cabin was well stocked with everything you could need for a comfortable stay away from home. My family stayed here for our daughter’s college graduation, and we made great use of the large yard for playing catch and yard games like KUBE.If I had to be picky, the living room got quite cold, while the main first-floor bedroom tended to get warm overnight.Overall, it was a 5-star stay, and we truly enjoyed our time there!

Thank you for the review and we just purchased a blender so the next time you come it’ll be waiting for you! Thank you for letting us know about the bedroom temperature! We will be sure to address that!
