Could be a safety hazard
When I booked the cabin the description said that it was two full bathrooms both equipped with a shower. Once getting into the cabin, it obviously was one full bathroom and other was only a toilet & sink. I reached out to management through text they said it showed in pics what was in cabin and dismissed that it was a misrepresentation on their website description ( I noticed they changed it a day or so after my stay). My main concern is that the heater is a boiler type of heater in the floor with a Metal grate on top of it in the living room. The grate gets extremely hot where you can burn your skin on it easily. This could be extremely dangerous for young children or animals. It is in the main area where you would walk on. It was ultimately very disappointing between feeling misled on description with no offer of reimbursement and having to avoid walking in a high traffic area of house not to get burnt. Please if you have young kids do not stay here. I stayed with my teen son and other adults so we knew to avoid it once we discovered it gets so hot it will burn skin. Also we never put heat very high so it wasn’t due to us setting heat temp too high.

Not a fairytale
House has great bones. Beautiful outside and great location.
But once u walk in the door…..NO COUCH!
Only 2 chairs in the living space. How can you all share time together if u only have seats for 2. The kitchen had only 2 full place settings, although the listing states ready for 4. Unable to cook in this kitchen with limited items to cook with. We could only use the oven for frozen pizzas for 2days. Ate out instead.(after we shopped at stater brothers to cook from the cabin)Many broken items and old furniture. This place needs some love. No decor on the walls and limited towels for the bathrooms(which had hair in them).
We would NOT stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Ill appointed cabin
This cabin was ill appointed and the management did not respond to a significant injury that occurred.
The cabin allowed for 5 people and only had sets of 4 for items such as coffee cups and plates. There was not enough seating to accommodate 5 people.
There is a heating grate in the floor that was not marked as hot or dangerous. It signed my foot and when I reached out to management they ignored me.
We have regularly stayed in vrbo homes and have been satisfied. This stay did not meet our needs or standards
