We enjoyed our stay. There are a few things that need repair. The chair in the living room is broken and needs to be replaced The dishwasher needs to be mounted in the cabinet. When you open the door the dishwasher falls half way out. The towel rack in the bathroom needs to be remounted. In addition we needed kitchen towels. It was difficult to clean and dry dishes and the counter. We ran out of paper towels half way through our stay.
The place is comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient to hiking/kayaking. The driveway is very steep and covered in loose gravel. We had trouble getting both of our trucks up the incline and have tire damage from it.
The cabin is stocked very sparingly with pans and cooking utensils. The dishwasher was not attached to the cupboard and the under sink wiring looked a bit sketchy.

BUSY BEAVER REVIEW
The cabin says newly remodeled, i would have to say thats it not. Dishwasher falling out of cabinet. Grab bar in shower falling off wall. Water spicket in shower loose. Not clean at all clean sheets and towels in bag in closet instead of where they go. Had to hunt for them. Also did not like the large deposit being charged. Stayed in this area before never had that charge.

Disappointing
We arrived and the AC didn’t work. 84 degrees in the house. After a few hours with no response we were told a guy would be out in the morning and we could open the windows (it was 85 degrees outside). Miserable night. Thankfully it cooled down the next 2 days. Two towels were dirty. One covered in mascara, one a crusty brown substance. Dirty dishes in sink and dishwasher. Property was fine, experience wasn’t great. Have stayed other places in town and had outstanding experiences.
Cabin was newly renovated and they did a good job with it. Beds were comfortable and everything was super clean. The only issues we had were low shower head in upstairs bath and not being able to get local TV stations to work. No Sunday football! However, great dining table for playing cards and we enjoyed the cornhole set and hot tub. Great location between Hochatown and Broken Bow so close to everywhere. Recommended!
