Perfect place to get away with everything you could need and more! We came delightfully over-prepared, this place really has everything covered and the thoughtfulness that went into preparing did not go unnoticed. Clear and easy to understand instructions and fast communication whenever needed. The property itself is beautiful, we really enjoyed walking the trail at dusk and watching for shooting stars. Thumb lake public access is right around the corner making trips back to the cabin quick and convenient. Our neightbors were friendly and welcoming which was a great added bonus.We can't wait to be back and see what Paul has planned for the future!
