Joy and her cabins were absolutely fantastic! She brings the perfect mix of professionalism and comfortable home vibes. We were one of two guests at the time so it was the nice quiet getaway we were looking for. The cabins are close together and would be perfect to book a few if you have a larger group traveling together. It was September so was getting cold but the heater and on demand hot water made for a very comfortable stay. The kitchen is small but mighty, it had everything we needed to cook simple meals and a full fridge to store what we needed. Fishing access is right next to the cabins and there is a grocery store just a few minutes away which is very convenient. Be prepared to drive a bit for anything else, but the scenery makes the drive worthwhile. If you're looking for a rustic cabin without compromising the comforts of home this is the perfect place to go!
