First, huge thanks to Walter and Rosa. They were so responsive, understanding, and accommodating. We had to alter our dates slightly due to our daughter catching the flu, and Castillo’s were able to help. From adjusting our dates, to check in, to getting the Wi-Fi set up, someone always responded so quickly. They truly made the process easy. About the cabin…it’s brilliant. So much space in a cozy place. The open floor plan was our favorite, with the kitchen, dining, and living areas all together. The finishes were very recently updated, the style was modern, and it was super clean. The neighborhood was quiet, but close to the lake and the playground. It’s only 5 or so minutes to the quaint town of Coldspring. This little cabin in the woods has a lot to offer for a quiet family getaway. And please drive carefully around dusk. The white tail deer were everywhere. ##### Charles T. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Rodney H.
