6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, communication

Close but cold!

The cabin is in a great location right by the resort. It does need some attention though as the rooms are freezing and there were no space heaters. The big heater only heats the hallway and kitchen so bring something to keep warm at night in the bedrooms. The shower barely works, most of the water fills the tub and doesn’t come out of the shower head. Also there is very limited hot water so if you have more than 2 people staying here showering can be time consuming while you wait for the heater to reset. We got about 6 minutes of hot water every half hour or so. Also, kinda weird, was the fact we had to take all of our trash with us when we left, there was no outside can or dumpster. We were told we would be charged $50 if we didn’t remove our trash from the property...
