We hope to be back again for next year’s camp! ##### Dana N. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Diann A. 20 Jul 2025 Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy Very poor entrance to apartment. Stairs were treacherous!!! Entered into a cluttered garage with insulation and pipes exposed all the way up stairs. Not sure if stairs meet code but doubt it. Furniture was very uncomfortable and had to use pillows on couch to set on. Not enough counter space in kitchen. Good thing we ate out. Microwave was on top of refrigerator which was difficult to reach. No toaster. Bathroom was off kitchen not close to bedrooms. Spiders everywhere. Pictures in ad were very misleading. Not sure how this got excellent review. Will not stay again!!! Host left next day after arrival for vacation leaving us no phone number just email in case of a problem. ##### Diann A.
