It was okay

I expected to get some work done because the information on the cabin said WiFi was available. We couldn't get a connection, and the router couldn't be located so we weren't able to reset it. The cabin was older than I expected and had a weird layout.

Cozy Cabin

We went with my 2 daughters and 2 grandkids. The cabin is a cozy 2bd. We enjoyed the little fenced backyard since the grand kids are 2yo and 4yo. Big front yard fenced in too! Nice deck for coffee in the morning. Fireplace is gas which surprised us but still fun and warm. Couches in living room comfy and pull out to beds. Quiet neighborhood. We drove to The Village 10 mins away and so neat to see!
