We called this place home for four nights, and we absolutely loved our stay. The cabin has a warm, cozy feel that made us comfortable from the moment we arrived. We were traveling with three small children, and they loved it just as much as we did.The cabin is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully set up with everything you could need during your stay. It was refreshing to stay somewhere that felt so well-equipped and welcoming. One detail we especially appreciated was the dimmable lighting in the bedrooms, which made bedtime much easier for our young kids. Also charging stations for kids electronics was a nice touch.Overall, we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. This cabin exceeded our expectations and made our family vacation even more enjoyable. Without a doubt, I give this place a 10 out of 10 and would happily stay here again.

Beautiful cabin in a great location

We spend a week in Carnelian Bay every year and have rented a few different cabins in the area. We will definitely look to stay at this cabin again in the future. It has a lovely, clean interior and a great layout. We had more than enough space as a family of 5, cooked most of our meals at home, and really enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
