We were unable to gain access to the cabin because the electronic lock hadn't been enabled. A few minutes on the phone with VRBO Customer Service and the host resolved the issue and we were only slightly delayed.Other than that, the cabin was exactly what we expected. Comfortable and a great location for our celebratory dinner at the Perini Steakhouse.
