Great cabin near the park

We had a great time here. Well appointed and loved the extra touches they had for the dog and families with small kids.

This host thought of everything!

Truly a home away from home! We had everything we needed for a fantastic visit. We cooked steaks on the grill and smores on the patio. The entire family enjoyed the hot tub, the ping pong table, and the arcade game. We also had fun playing Uno, Yahtzee, and Monopoly. The view was great and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful.
