Quaint Cabin

Very cute tiny cabin. Perfect for a one night stay. Includes all of the conveniences, even air conditioning, which was a pleasant surprise, since it was nearly 90 degrees & humid.

Disliked: Communication
Loved the tiny cabin. Was clean and comfortable (the AC was a blessing). The only drawback was that we couldn't have a fire due to no firestarter in the cabin. Also, the phone number listed in the guest book for the host, is not correct so we had ZERO communication with the host.

Finding the spot

There should be an address on the road to assist in finding it. Cool little place. 37 year anniversary. We got some great bonding time in. Would recommend it to others.

Terrible experience

I drove 3.5 hours to get to this (cabin.) The host said she would send me the door code by the time I checked in.
