The cabin was clean and well stocked. Close to sightseeing locations. Very nice three story-clubhouse with outdoor warm pool, pool table, sauna, video games, ping-pong table, shuffleboard, exercise room, and more. Host answered texts almost immediately. Very good place to stay.

Great house for a family get together. The amenities were great and the common building with pool and two hot tubs was also a plus.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2025
We had a good stay. Overall the house was in good condition. There were some issues at the beginning but most were resolved. It's really a great location to be able to enjoy all the normal tourist places.
