  This property was probably amazing in years past, but has suffered from neglect. The pictures on the listing are outdated. The pizza oven is falling apart and unusable, the grill is definitely home to a rodent family and the house itself seems to be pulling itself apart due to lack of upkeep. The grounds are unkept and the ants seem to be taking over the front patio. The worst part is the hvac system is broken and undersized. I complained about the hvac not working, but the property manager just shrugged it off and suggested to use the whole house fan, which isnt sufficient in 90 degree weather. The upstairs of the cabin got up to 82 degrees during our stay with no way to cool it. It is a shame that this place is being neglected because you can tell that a lot of work and love went into building it, but it is hard to keep that perspective when the water is oddly iron smelling, the celling fan is broken, the hvac is broken, some of the doors don't lock, the grounds are unkept and the caretaker seems to not care. We looked through the guest book and it seems like the last guests this place had was in august of 2024, nearly a year ago. I am sure this place was great once, it is a shame they are letting it fall into disrepair.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Jesse, the right vacation home is everything, and we're sorry to hear this stay didn’t meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - The cabin’s photos remain a current representation, reflecting its authentic, rustic charm nestled in a wooded farmland setting.
  - The “pulling apart” effect is natural log settling over time, not structural damage, and the home is maintained with care.
  - Grounds are professionally mowed weekly, with some native plants left intentionally to support local wildlife like monarch butterflies.
  - A Lennox split heat pump was installed in 2024 to improve comfort, and the whole house fan is designed to help circulate air, though we understand hot weather can still be challenging.
  - We’re sorry the HVAC system wasn’t sufficient during your stay and appreciate your feedback as we continue to monitor and improve guest comfort.
  Thanks for your valuable feedback!
