We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kids loved the loft and the hot tub. The cabin was cozy and the beds slept great. There were just a couple minor inconveniences, one with a bedroom ceiling fan and the other with the oven. However Troy was quick and responsive to these requests and provided a quick fix and solution on both. He was very easy to work and communicate with.

We really enjoyed our stay even though it wasn't long enough lol. Didn't want our time to end. Hot tub was nice,hot and ready for us to jump in on arrival. The place was clean and I love that 1 bedroom had a deck porch . The lift was nice as well. Had a minor accident but everything was perfect!!! Took plenty of pics around property!!! The drive was okay the gravel road didn't give us too much hassle and we were safe. I loved it and will possibly book on next casino trip

Very attentive owner

We had a couple of issues when we got there. When we reached out to the property owner he was very prompt with correcting them. The hot tub was a very enjoyable way to warm up considering how cold it got at night. If I had to give this any kind of rating it would have to be a 10 out of 10

Could’ve been a little cleaner it wasn’t cleaned very well. I wanted to have a birthday cake beside the hot tub on the table, but there was a big hole in the ceiling for the rain came in and Wet the table and chairs The host Was nice, but couldn’t get the water wheel to work. Just needs a little TLC around the area, but would love to go back.
