Although in a convenient and safe location, the cabin itself does not appear to be well maintained, or rather minimally maintained. Thick spiderwebs were both inside and outside of the cabin. Cooking supplies were cracked or very worn and there was even a drawer that was stuck closed. A layer of grease could be felt over the countertops and stove. Other basic utilities were either worn or not included at all. For example, an old used sponge was left to use for washing dishes and there was no toaster. The entire refrigerator would shift completely when trying to open the freezer drawer. The entire cabin was stuffy in a way that it hadn't been used in quite a while and the only windows that had screens to help keep insects out were in the bathrooms and washroom. The photo of the cabin is misleading in that the lighting of the main living room was very dim. The tubs in the bathrooms were both worn and cracked. The bottles of toiletries that were left in the bathrooms were empty and old. The towels left for us to use needed to be washed prior to use because it seems generally that the cabin wasn't used for a while and were only checked to see if things were there prior to our visit.All in all, this cabin needs a bit more TLC and a couple of upgrades to keep it up to expectations when we are expected to pay close to 1,000 for a couple of nights stay. Pretty disappointed.
