Perfect cabin for a family

Property was perfect as we were not there so much. Only tv is in main den and there were no hair dryers provided but everything else we needed was there! Driveway is rather steep, so probably not usable when it ices. Also water pressure in baths is low but works fine for showering. Plenty of beds so would hold a lot!

Thank you so much Melissa for the feedback and my apologies about the hairdryer! We'll make sure they are there moving forward. And yes, the water pressure at the tub faucet is low, but as you alluded it's fine at the shower head. We have had 2 plumbers look at this but we will call and have a 3rd do the same. And finally, yes with the drive we do not recommend folks to rent in the winter unless they have 4x4. Thank you again and please come back again.
