This a delightful little cabin that is well equipped and as advertised. We had planned to cook in-house on our first night but the oven was filthy, with a pool of semi liquid grease at the bottom and generally dirty. We microwaved instead! I sent a note on the VRBO communication text line and did not receive an acknowledgement of the problem. I did tell them that we did not plan to cook again over the weekend but was surprised at the lack of response. Other than that, we really enjoyed the weekend there and would stay there again in the future.

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing that you enjoyed the property overall. We’re truly sorry about the oven not being up to standard and regret that we weren’t aware of it during your stay—had we known, we would have been glad to take care of it right away. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention so we can ensure it’s addressed for future guests. We’d love the chance to welcome you back the next time you’re in the area.
