Place was very cute ! The bedding and floor was not clean upon arrival and had dog hair on everything ! Smells like an old funky cabin, but was otherwise was nice. Hot tub, Pac-Man machine, and updated bathroom and kitchen were great !!!

This place is nice but had a few issues. Could not get hot water in the kitchen and the French doors do not lock. We also felt like the the code to get in was a little long.
