We got unit #1 and no where in the room’s info did it mention it was a two story building, it was advertised as a cabin and unit #1 it’s definitely not a cabin looking space, second floor was super noisy, since place its older. Website shows mainly pictures of the standing alone cabins and show a cooking stove, but there is not cooking stove in the unit we got. Management was not friendly. Unit is right by the busy street so was also very noise all night.

This is the first time we stay in a Cabin which is small for us. No place to sit down in the room. No extra Toilet paper nor Tissue box in the room. Trash bin is small to share with other guests. No recycle bin available near cabins. We stayed there for 4 nights and no extra coffee provided.

The property was very clean- the beds and pillows were comfy. These are my issues: very noisy- like sleeping in a canvas tent next to a highway. We were unaware there was a unit above ours until after we were asleep and the guests arrived. Wood flooring was not a good choice with having a unit above. We stayed in unit 1 and 3 times people came to our door asking for reception- 1 at midnight. We were on vacation too, not customer service- although I did direct them to call the # listed in the email. The door didn’t have a seal around it and we took a towel to put across the threshold to try to keep cold air out. Advertises Netflix but when it was actively snowing outside didn’t have enough users available to watch. Has 14 units but only 7 parking spaces, 5 if guests have large SUVs. We parked in some random unlit parking lot behind the cabins which thankfully nothing happened to the car. Maybe our experience would have been different with a different unit, but for the near $400/ night (with taxes and fees) we paid I have a higher expectation.

Could not access room at check in, someone had to meet us to open our door after code didn’t work. Not nearly as nice as the pictures show. Lastly it’s in an alley in town not a cabin in any sort of wilderness.
