"The house is very cute. Check-in was very easy. All downhill from there. The house was infested with lady bugs. There were thousands of live and dead bugs everywhere. On the couch, on the beds, dishes in the cabinets, literally everywhere. Messaged host and she said its mother nature and to leave if we want. This is in middle of woods, not a lot of options to up and leave. We spent first hour cleaning bugs. I messaged that this was not just a few bugs, that this was an infestation and that there was no reason to have dead bugs everywhere- that it should have been cleaned prior to us coming. Host messaged we could use vacuum to clean. Next morning, I messaged several times again about issue and that also the bathroom door literally fell off. Host never replied. We went to leave for our activities and realized we left a water bottle, tried to go back inside and we were locked out! Messaged host- no response. Spent an hour on the phone with VRBO, they tried to contact her multiple times. We sent them videos and pictures of bugs and trying to get in house. We could not get a response from host. Luckily we left a window open (to air out the house, because this is not a non-smoking house!) and my daughter climbed through a window so we could get our stuff. We left the property. Host messaged a bit later that she was at house. and agreed to refund money for our stay, but also added that house was clean when we checked in, despite pics I sent with dead bugs everywhere! "

"The host was incredibly responsive and helpful. And for full transparency, we did not ask the host about this while we were there; however, the hot water in the showers was lukewarm at best. The hot water in the rest of the home was very warm. Also, the loft area was such a unique space. The kids loved it! Unfortunately, we were there when temperatures were in the single digits, so we needed to run the heat. ALL of it settled in the loft, leaving it much cooler everywhere else. The layout and character of the home were incredible. I am sure that during more temperate months, it’s a much more inviting space, especially with access to the pool. "

"Great place to enjoy camping"

"Wonderful location! This is the third October me and my friends come down to relax, unwind, and reconnect. We look forward to 2026 being pir 4th trip to the cabin! "

"great place to get away. plan to cook/grill there, or drive 30 minutes for food. however, this solitude and quiet is exactly why we booked here. and gorgeous roads, hikes, sites in every direction."

"It was seriously so cute! Nice & clean. Plenty of space & sleeping areas for our family of 6. Although, we didnt spend alot time actually in the cabin it was nice to come back to a nice cool place to relax for a bit and shower, after an entire evening in the rain (Friday) & full day of sun floating the black river (Saturday). I would highly recommend the Panthers Den to friends/family & if available next year we will be back!!! "
