The cabin was very large. The location was amazing! Secluded but very close to the parkway. It was nice to walk down the parkway without worrying about parking. The deck on this cabin is amazing! Right next to the water. We saw a large bear twice while there. Jennie was great at communicating with us through out our stay. This cabin does have steep stairs. And steps in many areas of the cabin. I only say this so that someone else will know that might be bringing older adults or people with mobility issues. Wasn’t an issue for us though but just information for others that might be staying here. The cabin was easy to get to with no steep roads. We loved the neighborhood.
