We had high hopes for a relaxing retreat, but unfortunately, our experience was less than ideal due to a number of issues.
Positives first: the location of the cabin was truly spectacular. The view was breathtaking, providing a beautiful panorama of nature.
However, we were disappointed to find that the cabin was in need of some serious attention. The most distressing issue was the wasp infestation. Wasps were present in every room of the cabin, disrupting our peace and causing us to spend one night in our cars because they were landing on our beds while trying to sleep.
Additionally, the cabin was not maintained to a standard we expected. There were several light bulbs out, a non-functional ceiling fan in the guest bedroom, and the cookware and pots & pans were dirty upon our arrival. This lack of cleanliness extended to a damaged vanity and a broken drawer in the downstairs bathroom and a broken shelf in the refrigerator.
Furthermore, the floors had not been swept or mopped, leaving a layer of dirt that was felt underfoot. We also found items of clothing from the previous guests in the seat cushions of the living room chairs, which was quite off-putting.
In conclusion, while the cabin's location and view were beautiful, the overall experience was marred by the lack of maintenance and cleanliness. The wasp infestation was particularly troubling and significantly impacted our enjoyment of the vacation. We hope the cabin's owners will address these issues.
