We were visiting a town where my husband and his brother would go often as kids because his family had cabins there, and still does! Our rental cabin was great—nice, clean space, lovely remodeled little kitchen and bathroom, very comfy bed, porch was great for drinking our morning coffee. Our hosts were friendly and helpful.

May 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quick get away My husband and our dog came up for a quick weekend away from the valley to do some hiking and relax. If you are looking for a nightlife or dining choice, this town is not for you. If you are looking for a fun outdoor rec area with a single place for burgers and beers at the end of the day this town is for you. The cabin was small but fully furnished with updated kitchen and bath. Very clean and management on site to help with any issues. Even though the place could easily sleep 4 I would say it’s crowded for any more than a single couple. ##### Jennifer M.

Sweet small cabin with everything you'd need AND pet friendly! Loved sitting on the wrap-around deck! Lots of nice windows and ceiling fan, perfect for warmer days and nights. Only change we'd make is change out the Kerig for a regular coffee maker. Kerig's produce too much waste! Although we own property in LaPorte, we decided to check out an "in-town" cabin. It was a great experience. Thanks so much! Lanette, Julee, Rusty, Dag and Penny ##### Lanette F. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Bonny H.
