Overall the cabin layout is terrific. Directions and listing accurate. Only Complaint is spiderwebs and cobwebs everywhere outside. Couldn’t walk around deck or anywhere in property without walking into a cobweb.

Vacation
Our experience of the cabin and property was very good. It was nice to be able to walk outside the door and go for short hikes around different ponds and to a waterfall on one side of the development. Saw a few deer and other wild life. Our heat went out in the cabin and the management company purchased electric heaters for us to use. It was still a little chilly in the cabin due to the low temperatures outside. The management company worked to compensate us for the few days it was really chilly.
