Lovely Cabin
We were in town for a nearby wedding. The cabin offered a nice space to relax and enjoy time with our family. Beds and water pressure were nice. Kitchen offered everything we needed to make breakfast.

Nice getaway
There were some small issues with the cabin, but nothing that made us want to leave. I informed the company and they were very responsive. Its a cute cabin and loved the cabin theme throughout. We had a great time as a family and enjoyed our stay and loved utilizing the porch area. Very cute cabin.

Switched at last minute
Within a couple hours of getting our check-in email for this property we received an email telling us this property was not available and we were being sent to another location. This was at 10pm... I was not able to reach out to the Rep who emailed until 7am and then I was treated like an inconvenience for asking for the details on the property we were being switched to... We ended up being 30 minutes from where we were trying to be and this was completely disregarded because the substitute property was a "luxury rental". We didn't care, we wanted to rent this cabin and be in the town we were driving 7 hours to visit.

Cozy
The cabin was in a great location for what we needed. Right off the highway but tucked back enough that there was no traffic noise. Cabin was beautiful, very clean. Check in process was very easy, communication with the host was excellent. Would definitely stay here again. Pictures were great but cabin , in person, was even nicer than expected

It was very nice. A very nice cabin.
It just could’ve been a little cleaner. Didn’t seem like the comforters have been washed in a long time. Although the sheets and clean. The place just needs a really good deep cleaning.

Snowboarding Trip
I’ve been thinking about this review for a while because I’m conflicted. This house has all the potential to be the cutest and most comforting stay one could imagine. However, our sheets were dirty, the floors dirty, dishes dirty. There was a broken crack pipe in one of the phone chargers in the couch. It just looked like the bare minimum of cleaning was done, if that. There should not be white stains on the sheets. I will say we contacted the owner and they immediately sent a cleaner to fix this. Although, once we arrived back to the house after the cleaner had “finished” she had only washed the sheets and not cleaned anything else. And when I say washed the sheets she took ALL of our sheets and left. Arrived multiples hours after our arrival to drop them off in trash bags without any notification. We were under the impression that we were without sheets because of lack of communication. I want to say it’s not necessary the owners fault if they are not local but they should highly consider hiring a different cleaning crew. Having said all of this, the house is so comfortable and cozy, my spouse and I still said we wouldn’t mind coming back but we know to bring our own cleaning supplies for any future stays. Mainly because of location, atmosphere, and coziness of the house. I hope this review interprets our stay fairly and that effectively. It’s a great place but needs more care and appreciation than it has been given.

Great location, needs sprucing
This cabin was great for our family! An odd location, tucked behind a church, but very quiet and secluded. Only 15 min from Scranton, tons of stores and restaurants right down the road. The property manager was very accommodating and quick to reply. The cleaning company however needs to step up their game. There was nothing icky enough to make us want to leave, but it’s obvious the cleaners cut corners. There were no complimentary toiletries as described in the listing, and I had to buy my own sponge and dish soap. This is definitely not a bad review because we really enjoyed staying at the cabin! It just needs some sprucing!

The cabin is a great concept. The location is less desirable.
Renting was easy online. Not knowing the exact location before booking is a negative. The cabin is a nice idea, but it is located off a main road basically in the backyard of a large church. It wasn’t exactly a “cabin in the woods” that was expected. We only had two towels (for four people). We ended up buying some at a nearby Target. The cabin was tidy, but not thoroughly cleaned. There were crumbs in the couches. Pros-there was plenty of firewood cut for the fireplace which we used each night. Beds were comfortable.
