Summary: A few friends looking for a cabin weekend and this was the perfect spot! Just 15-20 minutes from main road highlands where all the food and shopping is. The property is large and has a great fire pit! The house itself was clean, spacious, and had comfortable sleeping arrangements. The host was 12/10 amazing. Responded quickly when needed, flexible, and have clear / concise instructions. Would rent again!! My friends loved it.
