No support after hours

Very rustic, solar powered. Had no hot water the 1st and last night of our stay (2 out of 3 nights) it was due to a known issue with the hot water heater in our cabin. No one on call at night, to come, “ turn it off, then back on again”, so we could not take warm showers. The end result was a credit to us for $25 each night. We will not stay again, this review is to inform you that there is no support staff on site or on call after hours.

The cabin was nice. But the bathroom shower was dirty . Dirty and stained towels that smelt awful. . The ac only went to 68 the cabin never got below 71 with 68% humidity. For what you pay the the check in and out is a bit extreme. 250 plus dollars for less than 24 hours. I feel like they could do better .

Major disappointment

The gravel road into the cabins was horrible. Big potholes that need to be fixed ASAP. When we arrived the driveway into cabin 3 was so tight I had to back up a few times to get into the drive. When we got to the porch/patio area it was awful. The roof was covered in spiderwebs. The furniture was disgusting, it looked as if it had ash or mold on the cushions. The fireplace had roaches in it. The grill was not cleaned. When we stepped inside there were stains on the wall. The fan up the upstairs area wouldn't work. Even if it had, it was so covered in dust we would have regretted turning it on. The couch had an odd stain on it as well. I tried calling the owners twice. I left a message explaining and asking for a call back. It has been 3 days and I still have not heard from them. We left and got us a hotel in the city. Hotels.com can't even get the owners to respond to them. I will upload the few photos I took. Unfortunately I didn't take any inside.

Cute cabin tucked away in the woods. There are other cabins next door, so it’s not as secluded as the pictures make it seem, but there’s plenty of privacy. It’s basically like a tiny home and a treehouse had a baby, it’s small but functional. We had out two teenage daughters with us that stayed in the top loft and every time they were up and moving the whole cabin

Please don't fall for this scam. We got an over-water cabin. This was certainly not Over Water! It also didn't look like the pictures, at all. Dishes were all dirty with food still on them. Sheets and towels were all stained and dirty. They provide a phone number that you can call if you have question, but no one answers that number. Cabins were also very close to each other. You won't have any privacy. Kids knocked at our door in the morning, waking us up! We were very excited about this place, and were hoping we could come back. Specially comparing this place to other cabins, like getaway. We certainly wont after seeing the peoperty. The getaway was certainly a head and shoulder above this place. They're small, but at least you have privacy and the cabins are clean. It was a terrible experience.

Oh what a find. This is so much fun. Outside listening to the frogs right now. The only improvement may be to wash the gable windows upstairs to get an even better view. We will be staying here from now on between Texas and Florida drive. Thanks so much for the incredible vacation.
