WAS A GREAT VACATION
THE DECK HAD SOME NAIL HEADS THAT ARE STICKING UP. THE OUTLET'S IN LIVING ROOM AND BEDROOM PULGS WILL NOT STAY IN, AND THE LIVING ROOM OUTLET GET HOT WHEN THE HEATER IS ON. (could be fire hazard) THE COUCH WAS UP AGAINST THE WALL BLOCKING THE RETURN AIR VENT FOR AC, THE KICTEN FLOOR HAS A CHUNK OF WOOD MISSING FROM THE FLOOR AND LUCKLY I HAD ON SOCKS, BUT IT DID CATCH THE SOCK AND RIPPED IT. MIGHT WANT TO FILL THAT IN WITH SOMTHING. ANTS ALL OVER THE KITCHEN. LOOKED UNDER THE BED AND THAT HAD NOT BEEN VACUUMED IN AWHILE. OVER ALL IT WAS GREAT TIME AND A GREAT CABIN, WOULD STAY THERE AGAIN.
