Perfect cabin getaway for a bachelorette weekend
We stayed at this cabin for a bachelorette weekend with a group of friends and had a very comfortable stay. Every room was clean, well-maintained, and spacious. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax without feeling cramped. The common areas were just as roomy and cozy, making it easy to hang out together. The kitchen had all the appliances we needed, so we were able to cook meals together, and we loved using the fire pit to make s’mores. The only thing I would note is that the pillows in the main bedroom were a bit too firm for my liking so I wish I had brought my own. Overall, it’s a great place for a group stay and I would highly recommend it!
