Overall a nice stay. I would highly recommend bringing head lamps, lanterns, etc. as the lighting in the cabin is terrible. We had two children with us and it was near impossible to see upstairs after 5pm. Beds were terribly squeaky, and flies upstairs were pretty bad as well, so some fly strips would be great to bring as well. It was a nice place in good condition and very clean. Also VERY appreciative that we could bring our dog! :)

So,. Many. Flies... I have no idea if it was the time of year (end of sept.) or even what kind of flies these were but thousands of them occupied the entirety of the second floor (initially, due to the sound coming down the stairs, we assumed it was bees). We opted to make a truce and secede the entire upstairs to these flies and in turn, rather strangely, they weren't terribly bothersome/didn't seem to care about us or our food. Several locals were also perplexed when we asked, and assumed a dead animal or similar had to be the cause but there was none that we could find AND they occupied the out buildings/any surrounding structures as well. This worked out for two of us just fine. Hopefully that's a temporary or seasonal issues, looking past that it's also worth noting that your very close and up-hill to a section of train tracks in a passing area... while I don't mind and even somewhat enjoy normal moving train noises the prolonged screeching of brakes as they stop to let traffic pass (at all hours) really took away from the otherwise very nice surroundings. It would make an awesome sound effect for a horror film, though. And to be fair, wasn't constant/maybe happened 3-4 times a day so again, not something on it's own that made it unenjoyable. At the end of our stay myself and my friend decided we'd scratch this one off our list, not exclusively because of the above issues but we also didn't terribly like the surrounding area, which was beautiful but not what we were looking for/enjoy. There's FAR better in the general area, but depending on what you're looking for this might be ideal. Oh, and just to end on a good note the toilet/outhouse was new, clean, and far beyond what we'd generally expect.
