The cabin met our needs, in particular the outdoor seating areas was especially appreciated. The cabin had ac which is a must in a 2 story cabin, our upstairs guests appreciated that. The cabin was well appointed, comfortable beds in all rooms and excellent appliances in the kitchen.

Comfy Beds! Enough kitchen utensils to feed a small army. Centrally located, with short walks to everything you need. Dogs were very comfortable with their surroundings. Living room feels bigger than the VRBO pics. Highly enjoyable long holiday weekend. Would definitely stay here again. Many thanks to owner Dana.
