This is a trip we planned with my in-laws because my FIL has Parkinson’s & he soon won’t be able to travel anymore. We did not purchase travel insurance & I wish we would have because the owners were not understanding of our situation. We requested to reschedule our dates the day before our check in because my husband came down with COVID on Xmas & his uncle had passed on Xmas Eve. We almost decided to cancel the trip altogether (regardless of losing money) but my husbands aunt encouraged us to go because she did not want us to miss out on this trip with his dad. There were plenty of dates open in Jan and Feb for a reschedule but the owners said no.
Pros & cons of the cabin itself:
Pros
-Very clean & well stocked with towels, linens and kitchenware
-Spacious and plenty of room to spread out
-Bottom bedroom has kid things like a tent & games
-Washer & dryer were available
Cons
-The listing does warn about the driveway, but without a 4 wheel drive it’s tremendously difficult to get up the hill. The driveway needs regrading.
-The mothball smell was overwhelming. Moth balls typically contain naphthalene which is a carcinogen.
-The bottom bedroom is much colder than the rest of the house. My daughter couldn’t sleep down there it was so cold.
-The hot water heater needs adjusting. Every shower was luke warm & miserable.
-The downstairs shower wasn’t working properly which the property manager told us about & said it would be fixed but wasn’t.
