The cabin was amazing; it had all the amenities we could have possibly needed. From the deck to the comfortable beds to all the finishing touches, it did not disappoint! The location was perfect. It’s near shops, a mini golf place, and Safari zoo park. The host was fabulous. He sent a welcome letter that contained very helpful information and clear instructions. He responded to all my questions and checked in on us to see if we were enjoying our stay!
