A sweet Birthday getaway

We had a wonderful time at this cabin. It was clean and bigger than I expected. A remarkable price and worth the trip. We were disappointed that the Hot tub as advertised was not working thus I would’ve given this 5 stars. But we were able to check out late and that was deeply appreciated. Overall I would rebook.

Sweet vacation home

We really enjoyed our stay! The only downside, was the lack of fans for the upstairs. Having an 8-month-old and a 3-year-old, plus my husband and I… we didn’t get much sleep due to the heat upstairs. Other than that, the kitchen was stocked with appliances and kitchen necessities that we need to cook every night. My toddler cried when we left, he loved it so much & so did we!

Nice basic home with great backyard if there's snow.

This home needs some updates but it's fine for a short stay. We were looking forward to sledding in the backyard, which would have been perfect because of the slope and space, but there wasn't much snow. I like that there are 3 bedrooms upstairs and one with a futon/couch downstairs. The hot tub was lovely. No bubbles but great temp for a cold night. The neighborhood is very nice.

Novice place for a getaway

We enjoyed our time hanging out at the house. We walked around the neighborhood which provided nice views near water. The location is close to the main strip in town so it's easy to get everywhere. We just wished the hot tub was working.
