We loved the 3 taverns in town. Great vibe in a tiny town.

Great stay at a unique property! Convenient to the trail and town. Loved the history and information on the caboose. The amenities of the property were great and the added touches for travelers was thoughtful and appreciated.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2026
When we arrived the access code given via email did not work. I called several times, sent a messge through VRBO and did not get a response back from the host until the next morning. If I had not called several other 'known associates' that I found online we would have been locked out all night in the cold. The host does not offer an alternate contact option. Then the second night it was rather cold at 12 and only 1 of the heaters was working. The information binder indicated extra blankets but we did not find any in the drawers as stated. The deck is slippery with green algae and the shower water was warm at best. The sink water for hand washing was hotter than the shower. Dog hair covered the couch and while we love pets we did not expect our uniforms to be lint rolled on their entirety. The informatuon binder had been wet and was difficult to read in places, a simple reprint would fix that.
