The cabin was great. The rooms were roomy. We loved the pool table, the kitchen and the loft. No major issues. We enjoyed the barbecue and decks, as well as the wildlife. The Jacuzzi was a little bit smelly. The only other issue was the corner of the lake was a little grimy in the water, but overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Nice cabin. Comfy beds, clean, walking distance to the Halloway marina. Small but cozy for our family of 10. Holes in the walls to the outside im the 1st floor bedroom made for a chilly night, but bedding was warm. There is a dock, but the water disnt come up to it. Appropriate ammount of cookware and dishes

Great spot- nice cabin

The place was easy to find and easy to gain access. I was there with my three kids and we loved the coziness of the cabin and used the spa which was out on the deck everyday. The slider to the upstairs porch didn't have a latch but was not an issue. I let the owner know but never heard back.I would recommend bringing salt/pepper and any other cooking stuff and condiments you might need. We stay at rental places often and i should know better... There was nothing in the cabin when we arrived.The only thing that would have made the trip better was if I had heard back from the property manager- i reached out several times and never heard back. With that said- I would go back! Super charming little spot.

Great lakeside location. We would definitely repeat a stay here. Kitchen was large with plenty of pots/ pans/ utensils. No basic spices or cooking items but I asked the host ahead of time so we weren’t missing anything since we cooked all of our meals at the house. Gas stove was a bit difficult to start for baking / oven but did eventually work. Grill is charcoal, which is nice to know for planning. Upstairs bathroom was nicely updated. Only concerns: some of the wood in the decks is pretty rotten and could use some replacement as there are some boards that are entirely rotten/ dangerous. A couple of the chairs at the kitchen bar were wobbly and there were only 6 dining chairs in a home that fits more guests so we had to do some musical chairs for meals. Beds downstairs in the singles room are extremely uncomfortable/ old spring mattresses with obvious indentations even without laying on them. All of our guests that stayed in that room complained about the beds.

Stay somewhere else

There are a lot of other properties available. Save yourself the headache and book elsewhere. The king bedroom had an awful smell most likely from water leaking from the roof. The rug was soaked and basically this room was off limits.
