Avis
Excellent location – quiet, surrounded by trees, great hiking, swimming, and towns a short distance away
Lots of outdoor space including two decks, one right outside the kitchen, another a short distance from the cabin.
Kitchen well stocked with cooking supplies, look in multiple locations for pots and pans, including the inside of the oven.
Comfortably accommodates 4-5 adults
A large bin of maps and other local information was helpful.
The WiFi covers a wide area and was very reliable.
The hot tub comfortably fits four adults, though it wouldn’t heat over 99 o
Cons
The driveway is challenging, but you can park along the road and walk down a short staircase.
The interior is very dark, only the kitchen and bathroom have sufficient lighting.
The cabin does not cool off much at night, leaving the upstairs warm and stuffy in the summer.
One of the beds upstairs is much higher than usual, a step stool would be helpful.
The stairs down to the third bedroom and laundry area are steep with poor visibility.
Downstairs bedroom has no closet or dresser to put one’s belongings
Downstairs bathroom has no shower, only a tub with a shower hose
Some basic supplies in short supply – toilet paper, dish soap, coffee filters
The mini-dishwasher is too small to be of any real use and it takes up precious counter space.
We did encounter some stumbling blocks though: we could not locate the house instruction binder anywhere; 3 outlets in one bedroom upstairs did not have power; the hot tub was dirty and we had to call for maintenance; and a minor thing, but there was no laundry detergent so we could not get a towel load going when we checked out; there were covers and odds and ends wadded up behind beds and furniture, and the decks really were in need of a general sweep and cleaning -- seemed pretty neglected.
Also keep in mind that there is no A/C, and on a hot weekend like ours, you'll spend a bit of effort managing the house temp manually. There is only one ceiling fan in the house.
All in all, a great time was had despite some hiccups in services we've come to expect from vacation rentals.
Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

Only things wrong were the lighting isn't bright in the cabin and the towels for the kitchen and bathroom are limited. I would have liked more lighting through the cabin and more towels. Over all it is a nice time away from the hustle and bustle of the daily life.
The cabin is also like someone lives there when not rented out. There are things there that are for personal use.
