Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed a the cabin for a week. The cabin was nice and location was great. The cabin was supplied with everything you need but I would recommend suppling additional wash clothes. There was only a couple wash clothes. The shower upstairs and the jets in the bath tub downstairs did not appear to be the cleanest so we cleaned them before we used them. There was dust bunnies in the corner on the floor in the upstairs bedroom but overall a great place.

Nice place
The home had everything we needed for cooking and we enjoyed the location and the hottub. I was a little frustrated with the lack of response from the property manager. I tried to call twice to find out how to use the fireplace. The mailbox was full. I could not leave a message so I sent an email. They ask if they could call me later which they did not follow through.
