Short WeekendTrip

Property was beautiful with more than enough sleeping quarters for our group. Gas company had turned off the gas prior to our arrival to do some repairs so the hot water heater pilot light was out. We called management and they responded quickly! They were very helpful and made some wonderful suggestions for us to check out while on our stay. Even though the property description was accurate on distance to Winterplace VRBO had it listed a lot closer. Overall stay was wonderful would love to stay again!

Always perfect

We’ve been renting these cabins for the past few years and they never disappoint! Everything is always clean and tidy. The beds are decent for a rental and there’s always enough linens & towels. We’ll continue to stay here on our yearly trips!

Cabin needs cleaning

The cabin was nice and comfortable but it wasn't very clean. The cabin needs to be cleaned properly, there was food inbetween one of the downstairs mattresses and the wall. There was also a lot of dusty inside, especially under the beds and other furniture.

Enjoyable family vacation

We spend 5 nights at the Cardinal at the end of May. It was more than enough room for our family of 4. We found the kitchen well stocked for cooking and eating at home. We used the charcoal grill and the fire pit for s’mores. It was easy to gather some sticks to make a fire from the wooded area behind the house. The place was clean and updated. If I was going to make a suggestion it would be to have some extra blankets on hand for the beds, the first couple nights were quite cool and I could have used another layer on my bed. The Cardinal is located just minutes from the main gate of Pipestem State Park where we spent most of our days hiking, swimming at the lake, riding the aerial tram, and playing at the adventure zone - we got the all inclusive day pass and it was well worth the money and a lot of fun! Overall I would absolutely recommend the Cardinal for families, couples, and friends looking for some time away.

Gem in the woods!

This place is amazing! Has all comfort of home in the middle of the woods. Our family had a blast in our stay. The house looks small from outside but when entering is another thing. Lots of room for the family. Definitely recommend this place.

Lovely location, buuuut

While the location was beautiful and the cabin layout acceptable, we were taken aback at how dirty it was. The kitchen floor was not swept, the counters had food caked on them, dishes in the cabinets had dried food on them, and multiple bathrooms had black-looking mold from water leaks. It was not a relaxing experience to start a vacation by deep cleaning. It is very unlikely we will return or recommend this particular cabin.

Wonderful location!

The cabin was great... our kids especially enjoyed the beds built into the wall (note that it is in the basement, so 2 floors away from where the master bedroom is, so if you have small kids it is hard to hear them from there). House felt large and roomy despite a small square footage. Incredibly close to Pipestem, house was clean, beds were comfortable, check in/out process very easy. We would stay again!
