Had a good time, but had to do some light housekeeping when I got there, especially the bathtub. Cabin also needed to be aired out, very musty.

This was our families third time staying at the cabin over the past five years. We love the location and how much privacy we had through out the week. We have always enjoyed hiking the trails and our kids enjoy playing in the creek. This year’s trip to the Farnsworth cabin was a little bit of a let down. We arrived there three hours after check in and there was still people there. Once we entered the cabin the floors we soaking wet from being mopped and the whole building smelled of bleach so strongly that we had to leave all of the doors open until dark. The next morning I woke up with a migraine from the fumes and the floors were still damp. It was very humid in there which didn’t help with the floors drying. The beds have been the same beds for the past five years which are terrible. We brought a mattress topper this year but even with that it was difficult to get a good nights sleep. The satellite cable was not working at all which was something our kids we’re looking forward to watching in the evening and early morning. As we do not have cable at home and it is stated that the cabin has satellite tv. I also went to use the microwave in the kitchen and it was sparking and smoking. I immediately unplugged it and let the cleaners know about it. In the past we have really enjoyed our stay there and we were able to over look small issues. But there is definitely some updates that need to be done to allow a more pleasant stay.

the cabin was perfectly isolated for a pandemic getaway. nice secluded location yet close to so much great Allegheny National Forest recreation (we kayaked, trail ran, and hiked). the cabin was clean and well equipped with what we needed although folks should remember to bring matches for the fire pit and grill (we forgot). WiFi is spotty so if you do need to work (i did) be prepared to get on the internet at off peak times (i did most of my working starting around 5am). very high humidity in the cabin but there is a de-humidifier that you can run if you don't mind the noise.
