Nice house, but needs some work
We loved the location! Great house with lots of room for a large group. The place was very dusty though and the front porch and back deck were extremely dirty with cobwebs everywhere. A few maintenance issues also.

Spacious Cabin
The property was a great, spacious cabin for a group of girls to stay! Everything was super close as well which was a bonus. The only con I would say is the cleanliness. Upon arrival there were flies everywhere and crumbs on the floor and sticky spot on the kitchen table so we had to clean up after the previous group. But everything else was great!

Cabin 216 Generally favorable.
Great space, location, and AC. Comfy beds. Nice deck and yard. Good communication. Given the price it could use some TLC to dust, change furnace filter (we did this), oil hinges on downstairs bathroom door. Refrigerator shelves broken. Faucets need attention. Backyard pool quite popular with our "littles."

Our grandkids loved playing with our neighbors. New friends to play yard games with. Parents loved having a pool, and water park within walking distance. Cabin was large enough to accommodate all 13 of us in comfort

Great Location
Thankfully the location and overall beauty of the home made up for the shortfalls we found with this property. We stay in the same general area ever year as we prefer the homes with a basement level, this one however could use a bit of attention. Appliances have issues, could not run the stove without ALL the fire alarms going off. Most of the shelves in the refrigerator door were missing. Light bulbs burned out, sink faucet didn't shut completely off, cabinet doors in need of repair. Property details list there are pots and pans, however missing basic baking pans, thankfully we happen to have one. Also, not enough linens for the number of guests we had indicated and ran out of toilet paper. Lastly, wood bundle order was NOT worth the charge and ended up without a fire starter to even light the fire pit.

Great Stay!
Cabin 216 was a great family getaway. The house was very clean and spacious. We were super impressed with what the house came equipped with (# of towels, extra bedding, kitchen supplies). Had a difficult time with communication, didn't get responses when contacted. Overall was a great stay and would recommend it for larger families.

Perfect place for our family
This location is spacious and in a perfect location. The backyard is large which we used for a social hour. We cooked most of our own meals which saved a lot of money and we had more time for fun! Couple notes: There was not much TP, paper towels, trash bags, laundry detergent, dish soap or dishwasher tabs. We had to buy all the above. That would be the one criticism when the property said there was plenty.
