Summary: The cabin nails it for the view, peace and quiet. The drive in was fine even in the rain. We drove a Honda Pilot. We had a number of challenges. When we arrived the cleaning crew was still there and were there for a couple hours. The host did refund us half the cleaning fee. We lost power while we were there and the generator did not come on. The host was quick to respond and did fix the issue. The fridge was not cleaned out. There was half filled pasta sauce jars and other food items. There was also no coffee filters or coffee which was stated would be. The shower had no toiletries at all. No soap shampoo etc. The biggest thing to be aware of was the accommodations. We originally booked for five people, which is the maximum number of people they said it could accommodate. My son decided to travel with friends so we ended up with four. But the place is really best for two or three. There is no table inside. The bar has room for only 4 stools. The outdoor table has a four person bar height table and chairs. The fire pit only has two chairs and a make shift bench. The living room has an IKEA chair and a couch. The couch was the really odd choice. It faces an amazing view, but only seats two people because it has a console in the middle for cups and a compartment. If you have a wife or significant other you can’t actually snuggle up to the person. You spend the trip sitting apart and if you have more than 3 people you have to rotate who gets a chair. The view was spectacular.
