10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
The cabin was fun and creatively decorated. I was impressed with the thoughtfulness of the provided snacks, kitchen appliances and charming atmosphere. The only reason I didn’t rate 5 stars is that operating the shower was tricky and we had an alarm that went off but the hosts took care of it immediately. I would love to return into the springtime as there is a stream bed and rock formation on the property that would be beautiful to see. We were two couples and it was good but I imagine it would be great for families. Kids would think it was an adventure to stay there. The stained glass window was gorgeous, the kitchen was convenient and attractive. There was a washer and dryer, barbecue and nice patio outside. I would happily rebook this.
