Summary: Clean, new and well stocked cabin on a quiet lake. Fishing was great and we made good use of the kayaks. The kitchen has everything you need! Many outdoor hanging spots with beautiful lake views. By the way listing says two twin bunk beds but there is only 1 bunk bed. And the air mattress has a hole so had to keep inflating it all night. But just initial bumps for a new cabin.
