My stay with this vacation rental was really good. Me and my family all had a wonderful time. Loved the fact that it was partially secluded. Would recommend 

Overall cabin was great could use a deep clean on the stove top and grill.  Master bedroom TV didn't work but not a deal breaker.   Home is cute and comfortable creek in the back made for a relaxing evening on the deck.

The view of the creek is stunning, but that’s the only good part. The house was not clean, the washer didn’t work properly, and there was no internet or TV connection during my entire stay. Definitely needs better maintenance and management.

We loved our stay for my birthday so much that we decided to come back again but this time rent a bigger cabin, through same company. We were so so disappointed. The house smelled like it hadn’t been cleaned. The blankets did not smell clean either. Property overall was not cleaned very well- looks like no one checked anything prior to us checking in. Compared to the first property we stayed at - this one was a disappointment. I washed my bedding because I just couldn’t sleep like that - the night of checking in I was up to 3am washing beddings so we could sleep comfortably. My family did not like it at all. I’d give it a 3/10. As an AirB&B cleaner myself, this property was not considered clean.
