Everything about the cabin was great — clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was perfect and the overall experience was very comfortable and relaxing.I had read a previous review mentioning that the upstairs rooms could be cold, but that was not our experience at all. There were plenty of heaters provided, and the upstairs room was warm and very comfortable throughout our stay.We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommended! ##### Mike N.

Location is walkable to BB Lake, dog park, park, and some food places. The kitchen is perfect & the living room is huge! So comfortable for 4-5 people. Our frenchie loved it.
