Loved the cabin. We would have enjoyed a TV for the evenings and wished the corner fireplace worked but it was overall enjoyable, clean, and was satisfied.

Pros: - Overall, this is a cool cabin (note, it's a side building separate from the main house) - Close to town, - The size of the room/kitchen/bathroom was just fine for a quick weekend stay - The shower is amazing (one of the pumps with liquid did not work) - Communication with the owner was fantastic - Easy to get into - Plenty of parking in the driveway - Clean - Kitchen was basic, but had what we needed Cons: - Probably the worst mattress I've ever tried to sleep in (very squeaky). We also tried to sleep on the couch and that wasn't any better - and we can normally sleep anywhere - the entire bed set-up should be replaced if you're renting this out as a place to sleep (it's fixable) - The deposit was outrageous - there was a charge on my credit card for a very large sum of money for 3 months (when I booked) - our stay ended on 9/21 and I still won't get the deposit back until 10/5. The owner says he has no control of the deposit amount.

Advertised a patio. There was no patio, no outside chairs or table. No Tv, the host said there is no tv because he wants guest to enjoy the mountains. After dark there’s not much to do except go eat or go to the tavern. The bed and couch sound like crunching plastic when you move around on them.

Fair

Only one roll of toilet paper for five days only two towels and two rags. Mold in the shower. Seen a few small spiders not a big enough trashcan for outside for two houses to share!! Needs more sheets and pillowcases if you’re gonna use the pullout couch. Other than that neat little place.

Cute cabin, shower nice and large, vanity nice. Six light bulbs were burned out upon arrival, no light in closet, and heater stove does not work. The tall step up into bathroom and down into kitchen is way too tall. Kitchen too small and cramped to use. Seems like furniture was missing, no nightstands at bed (we dragged over dinette chairs), no coffee table or other table to put stuff on (we dragged in our own portable camping table). Attractive curb appeal but we'll stay somewhere else next time.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication
Was not pleased with this property for several reasons: the mattress is terrible, old and very noisy for even the smallest move. Extra pillows are heavily stained yellow. The kitchen area is not pleasant, not like the picture on Expedia, and no room to prepare anything. Utensils are more loke a collection of stuff from the drift store. Only a small table with damaged, shaky chairs (not safe). There is a sofa, but no coffee table. Lots of spider webs. 5 bulbs burned out. The bathroom area is the only decent place. Shower big, and nice. Worst: besides being not cheap, Vrbo actually charges several thousand and call it “hold” when in fact they charged it on my credit card account on 8/1/25 (booked room on 7/31/25 and according to Vrbo they will only refund it on 9/4/25! I had to physically pay the hold (a credit hold reduces the available credit on your card). Also, it will take 1 ½ months to get the credit, caused by the billing cycle. All this makes this property a no go for me for the future
Kitchen?
Unpleasant kitchen area
Empty room, no coffee table

Great little apartment awesome location

Loved the location and definitely a cute apartment perfect for a couple wanting to have a relaxing vacation in Lake City. The only complaint I have is there were some stains on the sheets/pillow cases. They did not appear to have been cleaned prior to us arriving(or the stains just didn’t wash out). We had our own pillows and blankets so it worked out okay. The wifi wasn’t working but we hardly needed to use it anyway. Also the shower temperature got relatively warm but not as hot as we would have preferred. Which is odd because the sink water got very hot. Overall would definitely stay again it was a great week in the mountains!

This is a nice little property to stay nights on vacation. It has a lovely front room and bathroom with a huge shower. The location is fun and convenient for traveling and watching the traffic.
