Sadly, we did not have the ability to stay at the property. Upon arrival and entry, we realized someone else was already settled in and staying there. The property owner had double booked the cabin. We were in town for our son’s Parent’s Weekend and there was no other property available in the area. It was an extreme inconvenience and so disappointing for us. From the outside, the cabin is well kept and as advertised.

Thank you for a great stay!

The cabin was perfect. For those who are considering renting, note that there is a mini-fridge and a two burner hot plate. I have food allergies and can’t eat at restaurants, so was a little concerned that the fridge would be too warm and the hot plate broken, but they both worked just fine. Thanks so much!

Trip to the Caverns

The cabin was perfect for our short stay in the area. It was in a great location to explore the local State Parks, hike some trails see quite a few waterfalls. If I may say great having the Keuriig is great to have , but need reg coffee not all flavored. We brought coffee but not for a Keurig . Otherwise the cabin was clean as a whistle and bed very comfortable.

Perfect little cabin with everything we needed. Close to the hiking trails, which was our focus. Easy access to eateries and stores in town. It has a comfy bed. Wonderful enclosed deck, where we had our morning coffee and perfect for evening tea and games. Loved everything about it!!

Great Stay

Location and condition of the cabin were excellent. It had everything we needed for an awesome weekend on the MGT. The only thing I'd note is that if you have an electric bike you will probably need to bike down to the trailhead as the connection on the property is a bit hard to navigate with heavier bikes. All in all, 5 of 5, and we will absolutely be back.
