10 out of 10!!

Do yourself a favor & book this log cabin like… yesterday 😂😂. It’s very modest, quaint & unassuming from the outside, but as soon as you get a peek inside I have no doubt you will be absolutely blown away. It seems there was hardly a detail that wasn’t thought of & I found myself taking notes on the decoration style! The cabin is breathtaking & expertly decorated with beautiful and luxurious furnishings, lovely hangings & nick nacks, holiday decor, electric candles inside and out. The patio has a beautiful view & is an oasis in itself. This is where I spent most of my time. I only turned on the tv once because I was just taking in the beautiful cabin surroundings and view. It was impeccably clean and stylish. The cabin at Tool was just what I needed in all of it’s cozy, comfortable picturesque perfection glory! I would like to come back to add in a few edits as the owners did such a beautiful job as hosts I want to show my utmost appreciation 💙
