Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
What a perfect stay for the two of us! The cabin is wonderfully quaint, filled with character, exceptionally clean, a great deck, and matches the photos perfectly. Fished at Duck Lake and Madison Lake and right from the excellent dock at the cabin! Highly recommend watching the gorgeous sunsets from the dock. The local area is fantastic. The Landing on Madison has excellent food and super friendly service! We loved biking the canopied Sakatah Singing Hills trail—stopping at Scoops for tasty ice cream is a must! Beautiful Chankaska Winery is also just minutes away and a lovely experience. Our host was incredibly thoughtful, even turned all the lights on for us since we were scheduled to arrive late evening. Absolutely exceptional hospitality! Thanks Ian!
