Almost everything was very good, except for the fact that you have to leave clean, that there were only two rolls of toilet paper, for 9 people, and we didn't have water in a shower, I sent a message to the host and he never answered (answer before you arrive but already being there, they don't answer messages or the phone)

The cabin was perfect, 10 out of 10, it was very cute, great water pressure, very clean. The only problem was finding the address. It didn't help that we got there 4 hours after our check in time. We drove up at night. All in all we had a great time. Highly recommend this cabin.

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.

Unfortunately, our stay was impacted by numerous unresolved maintenance issues. Several essential amenities were not functioning, including a second shower, a washing machine that only worked on one setting, and a front door handle that raised security concerns. There was also a significant water leak in one of the bedrooms, resulting in water on the floor, along with multiple other maintenance problems throughout the property. Although these issues were reported to the owner and assurances were given that they would be fixed, no repairs were made during our stay, which significantly affected our experience.
