"My family and I really enjoyed staying here and our dog also loved it! It was nice and clean (probably the cleanest cabin we have ever stayed in), the girls said it was their favorite cabin they have stayed in and asked to go back. They had plenty of toys and games, laundry detergent and a nice fire pit and bbq! It was also nice to have coffee. It was nice that the garden was fully fenced off so our dog had plenty of space to run around. The host was easy to contact when I accidentally put the wrong door code in. The neighborhood was lovely and quiet and it was nice to be so close to the forest trails. Highly recommend this place! Thank you :-)"
