Get-away weekend with family
The view is unmatched. The house fit 10 people comfortably. The bathroom on the second level did not have a shower, only bath tub and the toilet in the basement flooded x2 from underneath the sealant of the base of the toilet. The pipes must have been partially occluded because when you would flush, it would slowly leak out. There was water damage in that bathroom, so it seemed as tbough this might have happened before. For us, this took away a shower/toilet and then shower on second level. So we had to share essentially 2 showers and 3 toilets between 10 people. There are also not any washcloths provided. We thlight there were pull-out couches, but there are not any. That could have been us misunderstanding the website description. Aside from this, the house was great. There was plenty of seating for everyone and it did feel clean. We all enjoyed the house and our stay. The game room in the basement was so much fun as well. Overall, we would recommend this place, but maybe for smaller groups (not 20).

Log House
First impression was breathtaking. The view and the house it self is so well define that no words can describe it. I wish we had more time to stay cause 2 days isn’t enough. The drive to the house is treacherous if you do not have the proper vehicle. But it was one of the joys for us when we drove over there, it reminded me of my country back in the days. Thank you so much for this experience and will definitely come again.
