Beautiful tranquil cabin

Loved the cabin, the location and the gorgeous hot tub. We had a very enjoyable stay. The cabin was very clean, and it had everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. Check in at the Reception building was quick and friendly, we were given instructions to find the location of the cabinet which made it easy to locate.
