The cabin was nice and clean but much smaller than the pictures. The internet connection was horrible and very difficult to stay logged in to the TV. Kitchen had a few things but not much.

Reviewer Comments:
The cabin was very clean. We liked the location and really enjoyed the front porch rocking chairs. The beds were comfortable . Our only suggestion would be better living room furniture. The couch was very uncomfortable. The chairs weren’t much better. The living room tv was too complicated to use.We saw a mother bear and 2 cubs. They tried to get into our suburban but it was locked.
