The property, the good side:
The cabin is as pictured, decorated as vintage country style. The yard is large, mostly secluded and yard is equipped with many outdoor activity options. Cabin was acceptably clean and equipped. The screened porch is great.
The property, the ? side:
The posted pictures make the the rooms appear larger than they are. The cabin is probably comfortable for two couples or a couple and 2-3 kids but no more. As stated, it is decorated as vintage, unfortunately some of the "vintage" is probably picked up off side of the road, example is dresser in master BR. Property owner has hot water set so that it only gets warm, never hot. HVAC is controlled by a funky thermostat that continuously changes to some preset temps or either it is controlled remotely by wifi. Have to monitor the thermostat constantly to maintain cooler temp. A/C does not keep upstairs cool, no air flow. Property owner is aware of this because large BR has a portable cooling unit. Unfortunately the exhaust hose on it is damaged and will not stay attached. We manage to rig it so it would work to cool room somewhat but needs legitimate repair.
Bottom line, we would rent this property again but we are now aware of its shortcomings. The positives do outweigh the negatives on this property but would not rate it as excellent (5 stars) but above average (4 stars).
