Communication with the host was excellent. I was a little disappointed with the property. To me it was a little old and neglected. Part of the railing had been removed from the entrance steps, my wife and I are in our upper 70’s and it was a little difficult carrying our things in and out. Bathroom was very small but clean. The main bedroom was too small for the king size bed. The bed was against the wall on one side making it difficult to get in and out of the bed but very comfortable once you got in it. On a positive note, the sunsets were amazing. Setting in the screened in porch was great. They had just about anything you might need in the cabin, water, coffee, makings for s’mores, instant oats for breakfast, it was stocked really well. Our daughter rented a cabin in the area last year threw Vrbo and it was amazing, I’m sorry, I can’t say this property was amazing, it was okay.

Not as expected
The property was described incorrectly. Said there was a beach with a basket of beach towels - but there was no beach anywhere.
No restaurants or amenities close by.
No dishwasher.
Said there was a dvd player- not hooked up & no way to do so.

Very clean, very tiny
Too small of master bedroom, only one side to get in and out of bed. The tv in the master bedroom did not work. The bathroom was entirely too small for 2 adults. There was a toilet added in a small coat closet, which was very small and looked very unsafe. Not well suited for anyone over 40 years of age. It was very clean and had everything you could use or need for a stay. The owner was very nice and check in was very smooth. We ended up leaving a day early, because we were entirley too uncomfortable.

Great little lake Cabin close to Marina and boat ramp
This cute little cabin was perfect for our weekend stay. The cabin was well stocked and the hosts had thought of everything. Very clean and even though it is small the owners have made the best use of every space available. Very close to Snake Creek Marina and boat ramp/docks.

The owners have done a great job of making the best of this smaller cabin to make it both comfortable and roomy.
