Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Rachel M. 28 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The cabin is quaint and very private. The living area and kitchen are rather small, but comfortable. The bedroom was quite nice and the king sized bed was very comfortable. It's in a good location. It's right off Rte. 1 but offers a lot of privacy. The only negative was the TV. If you don't do streaming, you can't access very much on it.Overall, my husband and I enjoyed our stay. ##### Rachel M.
