It’s a great cabin with lots of space, warm and inviting decor, and fun things to engage the family. There’s access to a rec center with more amenities included, which we expected to be within a few minutes. Unfortunately, it was 30 minutes away through many winding roads so we didn’t get a chance to experience them as we had hoped (small children plus winding roads is a gamble!). There’s a beautiful view of a river (note, you cannot get close to it as it’s someone else’s property). The neighborhood is wonderful to walk and there is plenty of deer to greet you at every turn! Kitchen offered all the needed utensils and cookware, and there are plates for children which came in handy. All around a nice stay.

Great views, great place, security staff is rude

Overall, the cabin and setting couldn't be any better. However, the security staff for the resort are rude, will use foul language with your guests(my son was called several bad names), and act like they are guarding Fort Knox. The property manager was fantastic, very professional, but unfortunately they only have so much control. When it was brought to the security companies attention, they did nothing. We would love to come back, but my family will probably not return due to our experience with the security personnel.

Nice cabin with lots of room, but the stairs are treacherous.

The cabin was great plenty of room. Enjoyed the gas fireplace and resort amenities. Only complaint was the stairs down to the basement are beautiful but extremely dangerous. They are live edge so the edge of watch step is not straight and varying widths. I think ever member of our party tripped on the stairs luckily no one actually fell.

Great place

It was a great place, with plenty of room. It was clean, spacious and comfortable. They also left deer food so you can feed the deer that come around. We had no issues with checking in or out. I would definitely recommend!

Great property

This beautiful home was so accommodating to our party of 10. It was clean, spacious and perfect for our after the holiday vacation. The front yard fire pit and game room were both hits with the kids. The deer that game to visit night also made the stay wonderful. We can’t thank you enough for sharing your beautiful home!
