It was a cute cabin & furnished nicely. It is very small, but ok for a couple. I would've liked a firmer mattress, but maybe that's just me. There weren't any sharp knives or scissors. The utensils are sparse. They had coffee & a couple of bags of caffeinated teas. They had sugar but no creamers. I also didn't luke the fabric of the sheets, but that's my opinion. Also, they didn't have deep pockets so the fitted sheet & mattress pas kept coming loose. It's decorated very nice & is in a quiet location. We brought entrees for the microwave as dining out is limited.
Lovely cabin but not cleaned well at all. Could be just top notch IF more attention to detail. Disappointed that no one tried. Had to ask for toilet paper! Had one very small amount left on one roll.
3 cabins jammed onto someone’s front yard. Not great vibes. The window blinds were dual action (roll up or drop down), total functionality disaster. The bedroom blind was falling out of the casing. Fixed myself just to get blackout stasis.
No inter-personal contact at point. Just emails and a text- always reminding the guest what they can do for the host. Not guest centric - they simply dont get hospitality.
Lastly- no sugar for coffee and the dual barstools as nightstands - really imaginative. Maybe try the next to the least expensive solution.

Cabin was clean and well kept. Ours was right next to the road, which was a little annoying. The host was initially responsive but once we checked in I texted asking about ice and got no response. Fridge is very small and freezer compartment is all but useless.) All in all, the cabin was clean and comfortable and our complaints are very minor. Would definitely recommend.

Cute with room for improvement
Quiet spot with pretty good wifi. Needed the ceiling fans in both rooms and windows opened. Not much privacy with windows open for air. The cabin was a bit stuffy when I arrived. Seemed like some unfinished elements (missing a cover for the main fan/light switch). No creamer for coffee. There were a few spots of blood on the sheets. Wasn’t horrible… I’ve been embracing quirky spots this trip, but could have been better.

We left and went somewhere else. False advertising as far as the sofa bed went. It was small, dirty and not fit for a human. Keep your money.
I would never again stay at a venue that has NO staff available on location. I had problems with the door lock on checkin and there is no one on site to help. Several other issues/problems and no one available at the location to solve. Front of cabin had no AC. The front room was hotter than it was outside. The coffee maker did not work. The lights in the bedroom did not work. The AC unit in the bedroom was extremely loud. No food dining choices in Dayton at night. I would not stay here again. I would never use a location that has NO on site staff.
We traveled 8 days, staying in different lodging every night. This was, by far, my family’s favorite. The cabin was clean, comfortable, calm, and close enough to Sheridan.
