We stayed at “the deluxe” cabin. It was amazing! So big and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed for the food we brought with us. The heating units were easy to operate and keep us nice and toasty! We want to come back again soon 😁

The entire place is so dark. Barely any lights. They don’t leave you any firewood which I guess is fine but it’s something you should be notified about before you arrive so you can pick up firewood and matches on the way there. Not arrive- and realize that you can’t light a fire. The lighter they left to light the fire also didn’t work so after going to get firewood and coming back to light our fire we had to go back to the store to get a new lighter. No one is there to help you with anything. We called the number to ask a question and the person who answered was rude. It’s a shame. These little bungalows could be really cute if they actually put some effort into them. I wouldn’t ever stay here again.

An amazing cabin feel stay. Personally loved the minimal contact for checking and check out. It was so easy and simple. We were able to come and go so easily. The room felt clean and cozy! Loves the restroom warmer and fireplace. Perfect for the cool winter nights. Also super close the the town just a couple minute walk. We didn’t have to drive anywhere the whole trip. Loved everything. Want to come back soon!
