Lovely little getaway - lack of parking

It was a great little stay, loved the location, etc. We were only told of 1 parking spot during our check in text. The bathroom is cute, but definitely not spa-like. The bed is a storage for winter window storm boards.

Weekend Getaway

Cabin was clean and comfortable. Convenient location, easy check in and out. This is a group of 6-7 cabins together, parking is tight and limited. A couple of the neighbors were apparently long term or permanent residents and could have been friendlier. To be fair, short term renters are at times noisy and rude, so I get it. My wife and I were low key and quiet so it didn’t really bother us. I would definitely stay here again and simply ignore grouchy neighbors.
