10/10 Excellent

"Was very impressed, loved the location, secluded and private (and DARK at night, LOL). Peaceful and relaxing. But there was no bath soap, we had to go get our own. The cabin was clean, the bedding was clean and very comfortable. It was a great place to stay while we visited with family in the area. The kitchen was well stocked with plates/glasses/accessories.Might want to include instructions about how to use the hot tub (I was able to figure it out).Would highly recommend to people who want a quiet get-away."
