Meh, don't bother
Not a very good property, we booked a few days in advance mistakenly, and they refused to cancel and refund, even though it was the end of the season and there was no way that the property was going to be sold out. I tried several times to get a refund, through hotels.com, from property directly, neither party wanted to help or take responsibility for helping me, turly disappointing.

Room was comfortable but very small shower. There is room for a small table in the bathroom and it is much needed for toiletries

Wonderful cabin to stay in. Cold rainy night but the heat warmed the building up quickly and the bed and blankets and pillows were so comfortable. Shower and bathroom was perfect. My only comment is I would like a table lamp or two instead of just bright overhead lighting. Not a big deal just a suggestion. Beautiful setting too.
