The entire cabin was clean, the host was easy to communicate with, the hot tub was clean and ready to get in (which we did) and overall we remained comfortable through our entire visit. The only "warning" I would have is that you need to make sure you don't require assistance going down to the cabin, as there is a bit of a walk down an incline from the parking area to the cabin. Other than that, it was excellent!

Nice stay Stayed w/family for a baseball tourney! Really enjoyed the stay, kitchen well equipped, games the kids enjoyed so much we did not turn on the TV once! The hot tub was nice also. Close to restaurants and stores. I did have an issue with the grill not working so I cooked everything on the stove but host reimbursed for the inconvenience. Downside, there are spiderwebs on almost every light post on the deck and rails so I had to tell the kids not to touch the rails just to be safe. Also deer poop everywhere, which is understandable it is their land but at least before a booking it could be cleaned up before arrival because there were droppings on the only pathway to the cottage and right in front of the door.

Cozy, clean, and quiet Overall, a cute cozy quiet cabin. We enjoyed the hot tub and there were several deer in the evenings. Only issues were walk from car to door is pretty uneven so need to be careful and kitchen needs new utensils like a new peeler and could not get any of the csn openers to work.

Cozy little house in a good location Nice place for a get-away with your family or small group. Great outdoor space/deck with nice, clean hottub. Plenty of pots/pans and dishes/utensils for cooking etc. Location is near reataurants and shopping, while still having wildlife (deer&elk) pass thru daily. Owner/manager responds quickly to questions/concerns.
