The cabin was clean and well suited for our needs. This worked great for our group with each couple still having privacy. The only shortcoming was that due to the bedroom being very warm, we slept on the hideaway bed in the main area which was less comfortable. Communication with the host prior to our stay was quick and easy! ##### Michelle H. Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa R. 19 May 2025 ##### Melissa R. Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ---
