10/10 Excellent

Jeneva

Perfect for our fishing trip

This is a simple cabin with a wonderful history. There is a plastic binder in the cabin that will tell you the story of Jane and Zyg's Little Ponderosa. It's a no-frills cabin, so don't expect a fancy, modern stay. But it is simple and cozy, with all the necessities. It comes stocked with dishes, towels, blankets, soap... and if there's something missing, the Dublin store is just a four minute drive away. The beds are comfortable, there are dvds and board games, a swing and campfire ring outside, and plenty of places to explore, all within a 20 to 30 minute drive or less. We loved it!

The stay here wasn’t bad, it’s a little crowded but served it’s purpose. I think I would stay here again
