If you are looking for something "Rustic" this is a great place. We brought our 2 labs and had a great dogcation here. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed for the night. We dined at a local spot called the "dragon Cafe" just 10 minutes down the road were the food is amazing. Had a campfire by the water and enjoyed the fall colours. Everyone was extremely friendly and we would go back again.

The cabin is in a lovely setting, the owner was friendly, and all the basic hotel-style room amenities were provided (unless you want a TV for some reason). Definitely a good, affordable place to stop.

Traditional house inn
It's the cabin we stayed in. Feel like a cottage but with beddings. Breakfast served in the main house which showed on the picture by a very friendly lady. Chat with other guests who come almost every year. It's old traditional house. If you are looking for modern comfort, it may not be the right place. My kid likes the stay in the cabin. There is lots of fishes by the dock which keeps my kid busy. Also can swim by the dock. We would come back again.

We were terribly disappointed to say the least. We were directed to an old house across the street for our accommodation and we would not put a foot inside for fear the building would fall down. This property should be dropped from your ad as an Expedia listing. I would be ashamed to offer it to anyone. If this is a taste of what you offer where are your scouts? I am sorry I and my wife had this experience. The picture was not recent at all as to the shape the buildings were in.

I'm sorry I did not meet your expectations. The building is the original farmhouse built in the 1880s by the Knoepfli family. Rest assured the building is completely safe or I would I not rent it out. The exterior is original. The interior has been completely renovated, but unfortunately you did not take a look. You didn't like that the unit was upstairs so I will make sure that is clear in the posting. Your feedback is appreciated.

Unfortunately I did not receive a reservation for you. I explained I had booked appointments in the city and I was closing for a couple of days. Had I known of your booking, I would have made my appointments on different dates. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Couldn't have been a nicer stay really. Host was the best. Cabin was very nice and clean and umm, "rustic". No wifi, TV. So if that's the kind of thing you are looking for its great.

You describe the two old cabins next to the lodge not currently used and being completely renovated this Fall. Not sure when you visited so it's hard for us to comment.

Adventurously Unique
The perfect place if you want something totally different with no tv, no WiFi, no safety railings, padlock on the door, and a collapsible shower. The history is genuine and the scenery is breathtaking and the owner is accommodating. Worth every dollar.
