Summary: The cabin was perfect for us; very clean, quiet location, and beautiful setting. Absolutely loved it! The cabin had everything needed for a perfect stay, kitchen appliances and utensils, plenty of games and books, linens, and washer and dryer, which came in handy. Dan was fantastic to work with. He responded to my inquiries very quickly. We can't wait to visit, again.
