Easy check in. Nice kitchen with breakfast for the first day (fruit and banana bread). Bottled water in the fridge and coffee available.Cute and quiet, with comfy beds... the only draw back was that the water in the bathroom had an odor.

The perfect place to stay

This cozy home is exactly what we needed. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The decor is well thought out and communicates a welcoming and comfortable home. Kara, the owner, was so hospitable and accommodating when we experienced an unexpected event. Indeed this beautiful setting is amongst the kindest people we’re have ever met. I highly recommend this place to stay.

It was a pretty nice area and house/cabin. The onle thing is that is so hot and humid in there. We tried to use the fan but it didnt work and the little ac unit didn't do anything either. Other than that we enjoy staying there.

February fishing trip

Nice property and location. Would stay again. Only compliant is the beds are way too soft. We stay at my cousins resort 3 times a year. Our 4th trip is in the winter when they aren't open. So next year we will probably stay here again if available

Melanie

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was ok. We stayed here because it was close to the lost 40. The bed is very soft. There were so many flies in the house (dead and alive). We were able to find a little vacuum to take care of them ourselves, at least. But felt like it wasn’t very clean when we arrived. The shower is very small. And they wanted extra money to use firewood. The banana bread was good.
