The property is beautiful a wonderful cabin to enjoy relaxing at after enjoying the outdoors. The host has refinished the home. It was her fathers. She has done the wirk herself. I am an artist and builder and i know what effort it takes to do so. The home has a large open common great room kitchen. Just off main road. The host was so accommodating and responded quickly. I was up for a loss of a family member and she even let my dog out for me checking on the heat for me with the weather plummeting to make sure we had everything and we did from the start. Best host and home ive visited. She deserves more than the stars i could give her

Not sure why there is a national Park experience rating… We did not experience a national park while we were there.Otherwise, worked great for what we needed, and appreciated post communication. Would gladly use the space again.
The love seat was horrible. Road noise unavailable, rest was great
