8/10 Good
"Our cabin was amazing, it was exactly as advertized. The whole cabin was exceptionally clean, our only hiccup was the bed was a little less sturdy than we expected, and we found that it shifted somewhat when we moved around. Unfortunately, this made it a bit difficult for us to feel completely comfortable. Other than that our stay was amazing."
