This is a very beautiful property and the interior design is gorgeous. The only reason we can't give it 5 stars is that the deck and dock need much repair. Screen doors in the primary bedroom and living area would help cool the cabin. It was a wonderful little get away! ##### Marilyn J. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024
