Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Cabin was very cute and visually appealing. Kitchen was poorly appointed. Minimal glassware and cookware. TV only allowed streaming services for videos - no access to live football games unless you had own direct Samsung service. For the cost of the cabin, we expected more amenities and accessibility to entertainment. No air, and in September, the cabin was hot, even with fans and windows open. Location was good.

Thank you for your review, we try to have adequate supplies and cook ware for the number staying at the cabin. As far as air conditioning, there is AC in the cabin you have to switch the thermostat from heat to cool. Streaming services are available you only need to log into your own account through your provider. A Samsung account is not necessary. Thank you once again for staying at our cabin.

Great stay in a great cabin. My wife and I spent 4 nights at the property and have absolutely no complaints. One of the cleanest vacation rentals I've ever stayed in. Definitely has a "middle of nowhere" feel, yet still fairly close to civilization. There is a larger cabin/lodge directly next to the cabin, but there is still enough privacy and space to enjoy the fire pit on the river bank without feeling like you're on top of each other. A+
