Clean and modern
Liked having a tv in both the living room and in one of the bedrooms and also having central air throughout the cabin and fans in each bedroom. The living room, kitchen, and dining space was a nice size. Everything was clean and worked; liked having a Keurig and an assortment of coffee and flavored coffee syrup. The shower was small.

Updated and clean
The unit we stayed in was nice and clean. Nice touches that you don’t always see. Especially loved the little coffee area. Decor was nice and the furniture & beds were comfy. The only downside was the shower, it was rather small. I’m an average girl and felt cramped.

Noisy
The house is clean and well supplied. We did not cook, we only had a couple cups of coffee but they had everything for cooking. We got cabin 1, found out we got cabin 1 only the day before when we got the code to the entrance. I thought we were facing the water when i booked , but i guess i did not realize that 2 cabins are not 1 and 2 . Had i realized that i would not have paid $972 for two nights, way overpriced to face a road. But that is not even the issue, the main issue that the bedroom window faces 2 huge noisy ACs, and a very bright light to an entrance door to where they have a sauna. i took pictures of the 2 AC. We turned off our AC off because we just could not sleep, but the other cabin had theirs on. I left my husband in the middle of the night and went into the smaller bedroom, there is no window facing the AC, but the wall is paper thin and i could still hear it unfortunately. The next afternoon we decided to just drive home, and not spend another sleepless night before a very long drive. So in the end we spend $972 for 1 sleepless night. A little hard to swallow, we will not go back. I don't know about the other cabins, i am only speaking about cabin 1, We saw that they have a sauna and a tub for guests and , that really looks nice.
