Very Spacious cabin, although we were only 2 this cabin will easily fit a large family. Cabin very clean, rooms comfortable had more than enough supplies inside and out. The hot tub was large in perfect running condition. We LOVED the fire pit. Spent many of hours around it. The s’mores station was a very cute touch. Whoever decorated the cabin thought about small details. We loved it. It was also close to many things to do. The communication with the owners was excellent. Very nice people and responsive which is a plus!!We will positively stay here again in the future.Wish we could’ve stayed longer.. but back to work.
