The cabin was cute and just right for us. The back deck and view were great! The cabin could use a little TLC but otherwise was good.

Fishing
Had a wonderful time caught my first ever small mouth bass and I also caught my first ever Pike. My only small critic would be to rearrange theiving room..remove the rocker and put in a laz boy chair so that more than one person can d relax watching TV. My only other was you really need two ply toilet paper.
