Great cabin not a long boat ride. Lots of space was nice and clean. Be sure to bring at least 10 gallons of #1 diesel if spending 2 nights.

Weather was too heinous and we weren't able to go. Still haven't been there yet.

Cabin was in great shape and the Oil heater worked flawlessly.
We had a great time.
Lots of trees down on the hill behind the cabin.

Terrible weather, but the 40MPH winds one of the day and combined 2.75 inches of rain over the 3 days wasn't the cabin's fault - In fact this cabin likely made the weather more tolerable as there was plenty of space for my girlfriend and I and our two dogs, and I was able to put our grill under the overhang outside to have a protected area to cook.
