Authentic Log Cabin Experience in the Middle of the Action

The cabin was well appointed with unique furniture, cozy gas fireplace, roomy loft, good parking area, fenced yard that looks like it would be a treat in the summer, games, and a fully appointed kitchen with complimentary coffee, tea, popcorn, etc… Nice touches of extra linens and pillows available.We enjoyed winery, brewery, and antique shop hopping. We didn’t ski this time but it was right up the road. On our next visit we might come during warmer weather to enjoy the backyard!

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
False advertising. 2 acres?? Some traffic? Non stop noise! Far from quiet! Dirty and way overpriced. High fee for cleaning but you have to do most of the work. Pet fee is high for ? More human hair all over! Gross. Water keeps running making annoying noises. Security lights come on non stop blinding you shinning into rooms . Move at the firepit and lights go on. Bathroom was a joke..shower? Might as well say wand in a claw tub! If you are tall you hit the roof! Water smells, leaks all over bathroom. Security cameras all over make you feel uncomfortable. We asked to have air conditioning left on by housekeeping, was told by host condition was favorable..to who? We got there it was 83 in the house and smelt like mold and mildew. Hot humid day in the summer that was too much to ask for at this price?!? Even hotels do that and are cleaner! Place is unhealthy and unsafe. Wish I could get a refund. Almost left after first night. So much for a peaceful weekend! Definitely would not recommend. Maybe suitable for drunken ski stay...but good luck getting into loft area to sleep!!!
