Lovely cabin, but be prepared to walk up and down steep hill & driveway. Recommend having a 4x4 vehicle that doesnt sit low to the ground in order to successfully make it up into the driveway.

Nice decor and I especially loved the extra quilts. Beds were a bit stiff for my preference, but overall good. Communications were great with daily messages to make sure everything was fine. Unfortunately the blind approach from the road and extremely steep narrow driveway will prevent us from coming back. Even with an SUV I scraped my car trying to get out onto the road. ##### Sonia G.
