Oct 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The cabin was very clean. The location and check-in instructions were extremely clear. Also, the view from the small screened porch was very nice. There were a few minor complaints. The bed was too soft for me. The WiFi wasn’t very reliable, but that’s to be expected in a remote location. Also, the parking lot was gravel and rutted, so it was a little tricky for us older folks to navigate especially when carrying bags. I would definitely stay here again, though. Thanks for the clean, well-equipped cabin. ##### Carolyn R. Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### paul w. Dec 2, 2025 ##### paul w.
