Sent us wrong address and we went to the cabin with the steep driveway which was hard to get back up but enjoyed the new paved driveway for the correct location. Disappointed that there was no lake access to launch our kayaks but we made other arrangements for lake access. Enjoyed the hot tub and bed and shower and kitchen and tv.

My partner and I had such a wonderful three-night stay at the cozy cabin—truly our perfect getaway. We loved unwinding in the hot tub every evening; it was definitely the highlight of our trip. The gas fireplace was also a hit, keeping the living room warm and inviting during chilly nights. We absolutely recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a relaxing escape!
