Sep 3, 2025 Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy This cabin is not as advertised. It is a 2 bedroom with a trundle cot in the living room. The hosts charged us 35 for a propane tank that died after less than 20 minutes of use. Although they replaced it once we spoke up, this seemed pretty sketchy.They also asked to take the trundle bed beneath the cot to give to another cabin on our first evening. We didn’t mind because the sheets on the trundle portion looked like they were still dirty from previous guests. The lake is beautiful, but the boats don’t have appropriate paddles to go with them. The cabin is so close to the adjacent ones that some people in our group were able to hear a baby crying throughout the night. The communication was also lacking prior to our check-in and we were required to bring our own toilet paper beyond one roll and towels for the weekend. Finally, I would also recommend that they invest in dish towels. ##### Catherine M.
