Cabin was great and exactly as described. It was very quiet and peaceful with beautiful views. Hot tub was great. Grill and kitchen appliances made it like home to cook meals, it was very nice to have an air fryer. Multiple ways to make coffee (got to try a Mocha pot for the first time, fun to dial that in). Beds were comfortable as was the couch. Good fit for a family of four. Outside area seemed nice but it was dark most of the time we were here and was raining on and off.One thing to note is it is remote, best to have your supplies with you and plan on not leaving when you are done adventuring for the day.
