Nice cabin. Could have been cleaner inside and on balcony. Felt very small inside for four people. we stayed for two nights before this cabin in a neighbouring cabin which was bigger, cleaner, up to date, had a hot tub, and was much cheaper so we didn’t think this cabin was as good a deal as it wasn’t cheap. Beautiful surroundings. Felt private too.
