Perfect for us! I wish we could have enjoyed more time there! But it was just more of a crash pad for us after a Friday night wedding! Slept very comfortably though. Would definitely recommend this for a cute little weekend get away!

A lovely, cozy cabin and Keli was a great host. Everything was as described and Keli was very responsive in assisting me with the check in lockbox. And I loved the wine glasses and fresh fruit! Would recommend it for a relaxing get-away.

Property was so cute. We loved it. Only issue we had was the bed mattress sunk in the middle forcing both right and left sleepers to move to center of bed. I bit uncomfortable. Great home.

Very nice but no hot water in shower
I tried and tried to get hot water to come out of the shower. I adjusted the handle numerous times and could never get any to come out. while owner said I didn't do it right that is not true. I tried and had to take less than luke warm shower and it should not be that complicated to try to get hot water to come out. I was also told I could use the outdoor shower. I didn't pay to use an outdoor shower I paid to have privacy and use the indoor shower. Considering I paid an extra night that I did not stay the owner came out ahead. I know they did not have others who would have wanted the unit as only one other cabin was rented Friday night. I understand business and same day cancelations but how about service and recognizing you would have a repeat customer regularly. My son goes to Baylor and would have considered returning but have to reconsider now.
