Our host was very friendly and helpful. We had a sink problem and call her very late at night. She responded right away.The facility is a little old. The dishwasher was not working and the back stopper of the sink was broken. Otherwise it’s a clean and cute facility.

Annual eeek at HSAD
3 women taking classes for the week at Fleming. The cabin is a perfect location, very close to town, paved road, very quiet area, lovely lake view and access. The cabin is really comfortable and every room is comfortable with lots of amenities. Kitchen has everything plus lots of space for the items we brought. This will be our first choice for next year. Many thanks to our thoughtful host
