We arrived and to our surprise we were upgraded to a cabin instead of a hotel room. Nice by the lake. Cabin was clean and had dishes and cookware to use.

I loved the room with high ceiling, beautiful fireplace, great scenery from the deck, and thd carpet was a great touch to make it cozy. Check in/out was very easy. The two things i wasnt thrilled about was the stains on the tub and that the staff weren't available in person. Very comfortable stay and would highly recommend!!

Really cute little place! Quiet, super friendly staff. Cabins are simple and functional. Nothing luxurious, so if roughing it with basic human necessities isn't your thing, then stay elsewhere. We loved it and will be back!
