The cabin was smaller than expected. A little dusty and some of the blinds were broken.

Was hoping for better
Understanding that this cabin was older, I didn’t have unreasonable expectations. I was very disappointed upon check in when we had no toilet paper and the holder was broken off and hanging on the back door. The advertised hot tub was non functional, cold and absolutely filthy. The outdoor furniture and yard were old and unkept. The WiFi name and password were incorrect and my children were unable to log into their school website to attend school the following morning after we arrived. The neighborhood was scary- witnessed a police officer attempting to gain access into a house directly across the street from us which was filled with trash all over the front lawn. After they left, a man was seen acting as he was intoxicated pacing around the property responding to internal stimuli. At that point I feared for the safety of my children being anywhere but inside of the rental. I am extremely disappointed with what I was presented to me and what I paid for- I expected so much better and would never recommend this property to anyone.
