Glenvil Cabin w/ Gas Grill: Steps to Dock & Pond!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"We were looking for a place to stay that would be close to our grand-daughter, and also had a kitchen in which I could help prepare food for a graduation party. This fit the bill exactly. I was worried about the small fridge in the kitchen, but much to our amazement was a much larger fridge in the entry way with a freezer for our blue ice. The entire unit was just as pictured, and was spotlessly cleaned, as well as smelled clean. The outside areas were wonderful, but unfortunately we didn't...
