The cabin was extremely clean and very spacious. Plenty of extra kitchen utensils, blankets, and towels. We really enjoyed our time here! The host was communicative and friendly! ##### Morgan H. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Alyce M. Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Quiet getaway The inside of this Lodge is beautifully decorated, updated and clean (outside of the food we found left in the microwave and oven). We enjoyed the hot tub, but unfortunately, not the "movie theatre" as there were no directions on how to use the system and we were unable to get it to work. The game room was fun, a few have seen better days (broken / missing parts), but we could still enjoy it. It's a very secluded area which was quiet and enjoyable. I had to reach out to the owners to obtain the information on how to enter, and the response was quick. It is a great location for larger group gatherings as there are many bedrooms, rest rooms and seating options. We'd consider this again if ever in the area. ##### Alyce M.
