Thank you for your Good Vibes Only. The Washer/Dryer that was delivered (to give the cabin a new Item) was delivered Wrong (gas….not Electric) New delivery of (correct electric machine) is end of August.. And all in between that an electrition was scheduled for the correct machine delivery. The refrigerator Does work because it was working before Guests check-in(You) and it was working the day Guest checked-out (You). My guess Is it was 92* that day and Hot Temperatures make things hot.🥵 and Loading all your food and cocktails into fridge, She might need extra time to cool down. As far as the spiders i will talk to them tomorrow.

I had a wonderful stay here. The cabin had everything needed along with a very comfy bed. And the host was readily available when I reached out with a couple random questions. I'd definitely stay here again.

Very cozy and warm, roomy and airy. Well appointed kitchen, big loft bedroom, 2 bathrooms and a great deck overlooking the Salmon River. Five elk on the meadow the first morning early.Wifi was strong, great place to work away from home or just relax.Other reviews mentioned the sulfur in the tap water - we used bottled for everything.
Great view from the living room!
