10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Everything was exactly as described in the listing. Gorgeous property with lots of room. In an area with no cell service and usually spotty WiFi at other places around the wolf pen area this cabin had amazing dependable WiFi! Host had great communication and was very kind and accommodating. Loved the bunkhouse and we even played some pool in our down time. Can’t wait to stay there again in the future hopefully the next time there won’t be a burn ban so we can truly utilize the outdoor space.
