Nice clean property. Internet is very weak. No cell service in the area so had to rely on internet calling which was very glitchy.

Beautiful Cabin
Conveniently located Cabin for all of our activities. Spacious and fully stocked for our needs. Great set up for kayaking although the weather did not permit kayaking on this trip. Would definitely stay again. The cabin is on a fairly busy road with traffic noise noted in the evenings.
