The pictures of this house make it seem a whole lot better than it really is. It's a nice house that is in need of attention. It's a beautiful log cabin that has been neglected. I absolutely agree with another review that mentioned bugs and rodents...yes, it's true. I have pictures of the mice, and saw them scurry across the living room floor in broad daylight, then across the log walls in the evening. The mice were very loud. The windows in the eating area and kitchen did not have screens, so you couldn't open them.
The living room was furnished with the most uncomfortable furniture, which made it so hard to actually relax. We came home from our stay exhausted and sore from being on edge the whole time and never able to be truly comfortable in any room. The TV room had a futon to sit on....I haven't sat on a futon since the 80's and they were uncomfortable then and still are.
The kitchen had a newer refrigerator, stove and dishwasher, so that was nice. However, the kitchen needs some help. The area around the stove was so dark, you couldn't see what you were doing. There was a clip-on desk light on the cabinet...obviously they know it's too dark and this was the solution, but you would have to be 7 feet tall to reach it to turn it on. All of the cooking utensils were old and worn out and there were not enough decent forks to get through the day without pulling some out of the dishwasher to hand wash. The thing that really made me laugh was the watered down dish soap and 1/4 of a sponge...for the price per night I think they could afford to leave a whole sponge, but maybe that's too extravagant!
The bathroom that has the shower is located on the main floor, which is fine, but just be aware that you will be carrying your things up and down the stairs. The upstairs bathroom has a tub, which we didn't use, so I can't speak about it, other than it was odd because that bathroom was fully carpeted.
The bedrooms were a good size. The king bed was not the most comfortable, but it was ok. The linens and pillows were adequate, but not great.
The house has a huge wrap around deck with two bistro type table and chair sets....old, rusty, uncomfortable. There was one plastic adirondak chair. We actually bought more chairs at the local hardware store so that we could all sit outside together.
The wifi is slow and the power was out for two days.
Not a safe place for children because of the wood stove, and the driveway is very steep.
