Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sal 30 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication The cabin is very secluded! The road to get there is dangerous unpaved and narrow. We had to swerve onto the side of the road because we encountered a couple local teenagers in cars and atv's, doing well over 50mph so stay alert! The beds and rooms were clean and comfortable. The cookware was very worn all the nonstick was chipped and showing metal and should be replaced, only 1 small 8" sauce pan and 1 8"stainless stock pot is all we felt comfortable using because of the poor condition . Check-in was 4 PM. We arrived early 3:30p.m and the owner was still getting the inside ready. We had to wait, outside with her jumping and bitting dog.. after a 5hr drive. If you rent it plan accordingly and dont arrive 30min early ##### Sal Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ---
