this was our 4th stay in these cabins but the first time in cabin 6. The cabin was clean well stocked( kitchen, bath, and deck). They provided a basket of welcome snacks also. we had one time in our 4 day stay that they needed to work on a screen the manager texted us to inform us ahead of time and to make sure it was ok with us

The only problem we had was the bedroom needs curtains or room darkening shades. To much light came through the windows at night to sleep well.

A great little get away spot! Not too close and not too far from anything (town, stores, tourist attractions, hiking trails). Cozy little cabin that I would definitely like to rent again. Steve, the host, even has a snack basket and a cabin log that past guests have written their experience in! The only thing to keep in mind is that some of the cabins are dual cabins so you might end up sharing a wall with someone. I might have accidently streamed Star Trek to the other side's tv once or twice. Overall it was a great and relaxing experience.
