The property was cozy and clean. Everything was great with our stay but did notice a strong sewer smell after the rain on Wednesday and Thursday. Kitchen equipment all worked great. It was a perfect spot for our family trip.

Nice time
Very cozy and peaceful little cabin. My girlfriend and I stayed with our 2 dogs, and all had a fantastic time :) So many things to see and do in the area. A long weekend was not enough!
