Our fall vacation 10/27-11/1

We had a really relaxed enjoyable time in this cabin. We'll stocked, clean and the view was beautiful. Very clean hot tub and the firepit was awesome. Rap around porch, many board games and videos. Saw deer below us which was a treat. There were 2 skylight bulbs out over the living room and down stairs was was one but it didn't really effect us. The gas fire place was nice too! Thank you again!
