Black mold on ceiling

There was black mold all over the ceiling of the cabin. We had to leave the cabin at 1am and go to a hotel once we discovered it. Initially we had headaches and stuffy noses. My children with asthma started coughing. We noticed the mold on the ceiling and had to leave.

Family getaway

This is our second time staying at this cabin and we plan to return again in the near future. This cabin has all the space and amenities you would need. We loved drinking coffee while sitting by the river and making s’mores by the fire.

Nice place

The description was accurate. The property is nice. We were a party of 6 adults and everyone slept comfortably. There are three bedrooms, one with a queen bed and two with king beds. There is also a full bed and a day bed in the loft on the third floor. The river was a little too swift and we didn't catch any fish but it was quiet and relaxing and we saw lots of wildlife in the neighborhood and on the property. We did cook on site and nearly everything we needed to cook with was on site. We used the hot tub, played pool and other games on the first floor. The board games in the ottoman on the second floor are a mess, I wouldn't bother trying to sort through to find all of the pieces. The driveway is steep but we made it! Overall it we enjoyed our stay.
