What a great trip and great place to stay!
We were very pleased with our cabin! It was super clean and very well laid out. My only concern was the poor pots and pans we had to use so we quickly alerted the owners and they promptly provided us with newer pots and pans we could use. Everything else was great!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not quite like we hoped!
The house was nice but the property itself was a mess. They were trimming trees all over the property and did not pick up any of the debris/fallen branches the whole 5 days of our stay. We had 12 of us staying in one home and needed 2 bathrooms but the bathroom on the main floor (where my parents, one who had a stroke and can’t walk very well) had issues. The knob fell off causing us to go the first 3 days with only 1 shower. We only had 1 hotel size shampoo and conditioner, 4 rolls of toilet paper and 4 very small garbage bags for our 5 days on site with 12 people. Needless to say we had to go shopping. The kids did enjoy fishing in the pond and using the hot tub.
