Cute little place! Location and view were excellent but no toilet paper when we reached. Sent a msg but no response. Bath room door doesn’t close properly and shower goes scalding hot to super cold and we have to find small window of time to use on us! Not great for the price charged!

Water in the shower is problem. All of sudden you get a hot water which you can't tolerate and immediately it becomes so cold. Difficult to reach out to host, nobody takes the calls.

Cabin 105 has an unacceptable shower. The fact that the showerhead is not quite attached is less of a problem than the fact that the water can be adjusted as either scalding or freezing, but no happy medium. The wifi was wimpy. The cabin itself was sweet, though there were 4 of us adults, so it was incredibly cramped. It's in a beautiful area.

A nice place close to two waterfalls

It is a clean and comfortable place with a kitchen which is very convenient. The view is nice too. There was enough hot water for all of us (4 in all) to have showers. The staff was friendly and helpful.
