Nice location
It appeared no one had stayed there in a while. It could use a dehumidifier. Definitely needed some more cleaning. Nice quiet location.

Short family vacation
We took a short family vacation to stay at this little cabin took back into the woods. Very cozy and convenient location. Does need some updates which you can tell hasn't been done in quite some time personally I'm okay with how everything turned out I just know how some people are and these things could use some attention and updating. Upstairs bedroom outlet on the wall desperately needs to be changed out. Shower/tub needs to be updated with new faucet and shower head. Gutters to cabin needs to be cleaned out pack full would recommend gutter guards definitely help with maintenance. Front deck and hot tub needs to be cleaned off. Thank you so much for the opportunity to allow us to book with you We had a great time.

Like I liked everything nice place very beautiful. Didn’t like the 1st thing I seen when driving up was the dirty grill cover sticking out on the porch. And the walk way in the back had trash strode down the hill. I know it was probably from a bear we seen one close by. But it just made me fill like I looked like I left it. And a 1st aid kit would help. Other than that thanks for the stay it was nice and relaxing. Thanks and god bless

A nice cabin in a beautiful area
We didn't get there as early as we wanted so it was after dark. Finding the office took a little while, but getting the papers to the cabin was easy. We missed the sign to the cabin with the address twice, but went straight to it once we made the correct turn. The biggest problem we had with the property is probably a problem with the cleaning people. Two of the door knobs were about to fall off so I tightened them up when we got there. The outside doors were covered with spider webs so that was not very inviting either. When I went to make coffee the next morning the coffee pot basket had not ben emptied and it had grounds still in it from the last coffee that had been made and it also had mold in it so I didn't have coffee. We only spent the one night there as we had something to come up and had to leave going back home. I left notes with the paper work when I dropped the keys off a day early about the door knobs, spider webs and coffee pot and have yet to hear back from the property managers so I am not sure if we will come back to that group again or not. This was our trip for our 52nd wedding anniversary so,it did not turn out like we would have liked it to.

Disliked: Amenities
Very nice cabin, comfortable and clean. The reason that I'm not giving good marks for Amenities is that there was no WIFI available. The property indicated that there would be WIFI, which is critical for us. When we got there, we could not get the WIFI to work. A handy-man came by and did try to fix it, but was unable to. We were told that it would be fixed the next day. After a long day of hiking, we were looking forward to some relaxation, watching a movie, etc, only to find that the WIFI had not been fixed. Further, there was absolutely no communication about it and it appears that it was completely dropped. Not acceptable for us.
