Nice property, uncomfortable beds

The property was very nice and cozy. Relaxing, quiet, etc… however the beds were extremely uncomfortable, to the point where we opted to sleep a night or two on the couches, so I cannot in good conscience give more than three stars.

Quiet and Beautiful

We had a delightful weekend getaway and would definitely book this cabin again. Watching the sunrise and stargazing were highlights of our stay, thanks to the scenic and tranquil location. Although we hope the deck and hot tub receive some TLC before our next visit as they've seen better days, the interior was perfect. It was spacious yet cozy, with ample clean towels, dishes, and silverware. We were even pleasantly surprised to find ice cubes in the trays when we arrived. Looking forward to our next weekend getaway already!

Cute and clean- updates required

We stay at Fullbrooks in March and while the property was super clean inside there are some updates required to make a better rental, all of which were communicated to management ( deck, hot tub, rotten wood, screen doors).You are staying in the country- so expect as such including sump pump kicking on in the middle of the night and the occasional critter Mattresses are soft and not for the weak of backs. But the shower was hot and the place was clean as can be and we had everything we needed and had a lovely weekend. A massive storm went through and knocked out the power- staff was accommodating and did all they could to assist. A flashlight or a few candles would be a brilliant add but we appreciated all the night lights once power came back on - given it’s DARK out there! It’s not posh but decorated so cute and much love was given to the inside- the outside just needs a little tlc. We enjoyed coffee by the fire pit overlooking the pond. Would I stay again? Probably not unless updates were made… but I’d buy it up and fix it myself and live there!!

Lovely Property

This lodge/cabin was exactly as shown online and met our needs perfectly for a quiet getaway. Pleasant surprise there was firewood available for the firepit! Plenty of cooking vessels and utensils and all were in good shape. The screened porch was lovely for an evening game of cards (some games provided). The only recommendation I have is the decking under the hot tub needs some attention and the grill burners cleaned or replaced. Other than that, we had a great time at this out of the way place. Thank you!
