Absolutely love this cabin and will always come back. Its like camping but with the luxury of a roof over your head with lights, bedding, plumbing and electricity. I recommend people read the full description of this place before they rent it because the ones that didn't read it really shows in some reviews.. Readings amazing Also, the host Emily is wonderful and is always available if you need to get ahold of her! This place is a gem. If your a couple, small family or even by yourself, give it a shot and you wont be disappointed.

This little cabin was a perfect place for two. Check in was easy. The hosts were very responsive. We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck, on the dock and swimming in the lake. We also had a great time cooking in the little kitchette as well. HIt’s a cute and very rustic cottage. There isn’t a shower or a tub and there are limited appliances, but the tap water is really decent and the water gets nice and hot. If I stayed again I would bring xtra towels for swimming. Overall it was quite charming and was the perfect getaway for us.

The Perfect Retreat Before a Long Flight!

Everything was perfect, from the quaintness of the cabin to the communication with the host! It was exactly as described, and we came prepared! The only thing that didn’t go as planned was the hot plate, we couldn’t get our water to boil for some mac&cheese, but we had a backup! Our puppies loved paddling around in the water, and the scenery was to die for!

Other than some glitches on the VRBO site with communication, the property was exactly as described and much cleaner and up to date than a traditional rustic cabin. The property manager sufficiently made up for the communication flop and my family and I enjoyed our Father’s Day stay and would rent the cabin again.

Had a lovely stay, beautiful location

We had our intimate wedding on the property. 12 people all together for the wedding and celebration. Then 5 people in the main house and my parents with their dog in the studio cabin. The space is beautiful, rustic and everything I expected based on the listing. Everyone loved the cabin and we had a great time. We hope to go back for our 1 yr anniversary and more if possible! Thank you!

Can’t get in the unit I am sure I booked a cabin that could sleep five. There was only one hand towel in the half bath one toilet and one sink one bath and one pullout sofa. The kitchen was nice. I could not stay at this unit as I was unable to refresh myself with a nice shower. We left and did not stay the night. We were in the room for about half an hour making a decision. I would’ve even stayed if there was a tap in a hose to shower, but we could not find a tap.

Arrived and was not provided code in advance. As advertised there was only a half bath. Should have been clear, in bold letters that there was not a shower. There also was no stove and no hot water. This was very rustic which is fine if expecting it. The overall maintenance was terrible. Old flooring, mismatched paint, an old tv bracket on the wall with no tv, etc.

Hi Jeff! It is highlighted and detailed this rustic retreat doesn't have a bath/shower. It adds to the "rustic glamping lakeside appeal" in our eyes. :) For future renters reading this, please keep in mind this is a rustic and family owned and loved property, but minimal and simple! Do not be expecting hotel vibes. We happily host guests looking for a quaint and simple retreat by the lake. Good luck and safe travels to you, Jeff! We hope your next retreat is more ideal for what you've got your eye on!

Cute place on the lake.

The listing says 1/2 bath and true enough, no shower or tub. The door to the 1/2 bath was off the track and unusable until my dad fixed it. The only source of heat is an electric fireplace insert that trips the breaker every hour or so and a free standing space heater that is nearly enough on it's own.

Absolute worst place I have booked on any home share site. The host lied about it having a full bathroom (no shower here) and it was listed as a 2 bedroom when I booked.... It had 1 bunk bed with 2 beds. Upon arrival the place was terribly dirty and just classless. Tarps cover damaged areas of the building and it smelled of mold. There are hundreds of other places you can book in the surrounding area... I took a risk and it was horrible. Typing this review so hopefully someone will see this and save their money.

A minimal summer cabin

The listing for this property is mostly accurate, but needs to be read very carefully. It is a summer cabin with very limited amenities. There is NO: adequate heating or insulation, cooking facilities, bathing, curtains on all windows, hot water, ladder to the upper bunk, working fireplace, nearby parking, or safe walkway from the road. There is an electric kettle and hot plate. The dock is down a stairway along the cliff face. Auto parking is beside the road. The walk from the parking to the cabin is a significant distance, steep and a combination of dirt and broken concrete. For our visit, the cabin was dirty and the hide-a-bed was uncomfortable even to sit on. The frame was rusted and especially dirty. We would recommend this cabin only for a young family that would enjoy roughing it, or travelers needing only a bed. Be sure to communicate with the owner in advance about the entrance code and bedding. It is not automatically stocked and there is no extra in the cabin.

Hi Pam! Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, the communication with Pam and her party was challenging from the start. The cabin's features are posted online absolutely true to how it is enjoyed in person. All of the features Pam was expecting to see in fact were not showcased online. There is no cliff down to the water - a few steps from deck to dock. We were disappointed that due to their lack of researching and expectations, our well-loved family cabin took the heat of their frustrations. The cabin is rustic - not dirty, aged - not rusty, and a treasure for those wanting to escape lakeside - not just looking to "rough it." We ended things on a happy note via many conversations and incoming phone calls from the renters but would hope those looking into renting the cabin would enjoy it for its simplicity, cool rustic vibe and amazing waterfront location. :)

Cozy cabin, missing a few key amenities.

We arrived to a nice little cozy cabin, and enjoyed our stay for the most part. The kitchen was spacious & had everything necessary: microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker & hotplate. However, a few things did make our stay a little uncomfortable. The sink in the bathroom did not produce water, the “fireplace” was boarded up & unuseable with two very small space heaters to heat up the entire cabin. It took about 12 hours to heat the cabin & it felt warm finally by the time we left the next day. Since it was December, we could see our breath at night while in the bathroom & kitchen area it was so cold! Luckily warm blankets were provided, but it would have been nice to have a working fireplace for comfort. The dvd player uses a universal remote which was interesting to figure out..about 2 1/2 hours after messing with the manual & codes we got it working, but that was not an enjoyable spending of our time. Also the listing says “hottub” and there wasn’t even a bath or shower in the cabin so that needs to be taken off the listing. Our group made the fun we could being together, but would have had a more comfortable experience if the listing had been updated. This cabin would be better used in the summertime for sure!

Happy holidays! Thank you for your thorough response. Unfortunately as listed, the fireplace is not in working order. We added a second space heater for the area, but will certainly add another four incoming guests before the weather gets warmer! We are quick to correct things that are not working during a stay- bathroom sink etc, so next time, please feel free to message us so we can tackle this right away and make the tv/dvd easier to navigate. These reviews are the ones that make future days better for incoming guests! We really were happy to host you. It was a joy to have you guys at the lake and hope to have you back with the improvements you mentioned, soon! Thank you!

This property was very disappointing. Firstly, I had to reach out to the property host half an hour after check-in to get the key code because she never sent it. Then it took another several back-and-forth messages to get the wifi set up (which was very spotty). The space is extremely small. It barely fit myself and my two children. There is no shower. I did not realize this as it is not stated on the Orbitz or VRBO listings. It never dawned on me that a host would take a picture of a bathroom but not mention that there is no shower. I came for a triathlon. I needed a shower. The kitchen appliances barely worked, and the space was extremely difficult to use. The icing on the cake was the three carloads of 20 somethings who showed up at the main house on Saturday at midnight and proceeded to be extremely loud right outside our cabin until about 3am. This cabin is in the backyard of a main house which is also rented out. The Orbitz and VRBO listings also failed to mention this. I'm exhausted and now need a vacation from my vacation.
