Overall it was nice. But the furniture was very uncomfortable the only thing that was comfortable was the bed. Would have been nice if more handicap accessible.

Just what we needed!
A nice small cabin on the river. All the essentials and a few extras (salt and pepper and other spices, bug spray and a few other things). Cabins are close together but it’s a quiet campground and overall we had plenty of peace and quiet. Wish they had a hot tub but otherwise perfect for what we needed (a quiet clean place to lounge in the mornings and wind down in the evenings). If I was in the area I’d stay there again.

Dissatisfied
To start with, the views are beautiful with the river running by the deck. The pictures of the cabin are accurate until you look closer. This was a very dirty cabin. We had stained washcloths, kitchen towels, and blankets. The fold out couch had tons of dirt, hair, bobby pins, and what looked like mildew. The refrigerator was dirty, the air mattress we were delivered in place of using the pull out couch must have been stored damp because it was literally covered with mold and mildew when we unrolled it! The doors, blinds, and stove were all dirty as well. I’ve offered pictures to the host and requested the $150 cleaning fee we were charged with no satisfaction from her. In fact, she stopped communicating with us for a bit during our stay. The property manager told us we weren’t the first to complain and that he wanted to replace the cleaning staff. To our way of thinking, if you know there are issues follow up and verify the staff’s quality of work prior to your guests’ arrival. This was a trip for my husband’s birthday and would have been so much better without all of the stress. I hate that we won’t be going back there, because the location was great ☹️
