We lived the location, off the beaten path. The pool was amazing and we spent most of our time there. Plenty of room for the ten of us. The hot tub was in need of some attention but we let them know. I would definitely stay again.

Very peaceful, but we had a couple issues the propane grill needs replaced. Only had 3 out of 4 covers for the burner and the lid did not have a stop once opened it felt like grill was going to fall over. The hot tub is in poor condition out of 6 seats only 2 sets of jets were working and the cover is nasty and needs replaced. The pool stairs needs a good cleaning has green build up slime all around it. Was disappointed about the grill and hot tub I will never rent form 1st choice cabins again to much money for all the amenities to not be working. I hope this items are fixed before renting again.

Family Fun at the Chalet

We wanted a fun place to take our son and his family for a short vacation, and the chalet was perfect! Everyone felt very comfortable, and the rustic feel of the cabin was great. We had a wonderful time at the pond, especially taking my grandson fishing for the first time. Overall, it was an awesome trip!

Lots to do

We had planned to have 7 of us there but due to some spring head colds only 4 could make it. The house was huge. Definitely well loved. Loved the access to the lake and the catch and release fish. Lots to do on the property and around. Spent time in Athens and Logan. Next time we’d like to come when the poolIs open.

Fun for all.

We were totally entertained our whole stay. The children 6-12 wished they didn't have to leave. Was also dog friendly with a fenced in yard. Would love to come back and be able to swim in the pool, and canoe on the pond.

Comfortable cabin

Rented this location as it had plenty of rooms for everyone. Large spacious rooms with clean and comfortable beds. Plenty of bathrooms. Enjoyed by all. No handle for stove 1st night was fixed next day, was informed at check in. No lighter for grill had to improvise to light, bought and left lighter for next guest. If in area again with large group would stay again.

Girl’s Getaway

The facilities were great with just a couple things. The rooms/beds allowed everyone in the group to have their own bed which was great. Restrooms were plentiful especially for all women. The pool, hot tub, outside setting, pond allowed us to enjoy being outside. We unfortunately were not able to use the pool table because the cues were missing tips and we had an issue with the oven door that was not resolved before we left. We all though would come back.

Nice getaway

The property was beautiful and clean. This was a getaway mainly to spend time with our kids and grandkids. We cooked most of our meals in the well equipped kitchen. The pool and fire pit were very nice and we made good use of them. It was a nice place to get away and spend time with family.
