Beautiful!

We had a wonderful week at this cabin, caught plenty of fish and even put a tent up in the yard overlooking the lake for the kids a few nights. Would definitely love to visit this cabin again. Owner was very helpful and checked in on everything. Thanks again!

Ruth Lake

Overall the stay was good. More steps down to the lake and shorter dock for the family to swim on. There wasn't ans AC unit , but we were lucky with the weather not being too hot. Had a bear in the camp, so I would suggest locking up the garbage.

Ranch style home. The house is old and not updated. I have never been to a VRBO without a grill. We had to bring ours. Algae growing all over the exterior of the house, exterior lights not working, poor communication with the owner. Not notified of lawn service showing up unannounced and moving our stuff around.Cabin was musty even with the windows open. Too many steps for some seniors. Very nice dock, not weedy at all, and very clear water.

Memories Made

Overall for our stay the house was nice and allowed us the room we needed with 5 adults and 3 children staying in the home. Access to the lake was amazing to have and the location of the home allowed for easy walks to local establishments. Contacting the homes manager took some time typically to get a response. I would suggest that the homes listing show that it does not have an air conditioner but rather an air exchanger which doesn’t actually cool the air- the super hot humid days were incredibly difficult to be in the home even with 8+ fans running so if you are sensitive to heat I wouldn’t suggest booking during warm months.
