There are so many wonderful things about this rental - friendly owner, CLEAN, comfortable, hospitable, great location, well equipped, and special amenities you don't find everywhere.
First of all, Darlene was great to work with - flexible and great at communicating. And the place was immaculate! For comfort, the living area had knit blankets for cozying up and spacious couches for watching movies, the beds were king size and so soft, and the linens were quality. It really felt luxurious to stay here.
Hospitality? We were running late on our way to the cabin, and I didn't have time for coffee creamer, but there was some in a basket in the pantry. There were other condiments, too, like restaurant packets of seasoning, jam, and sauces that other guests were kind enough to leave behind. The cooler was so helpful as we went out on hikes - and we were so grateful for the washer and dryer. Darlene even had laundry soap for us to use. The cabin had toilet paper and paper towel to get us started until I was able to get more (and leave behind for the next guests), and I was able to use some of the plastic dishes in the pantry to take on picnic lunches - just those little things that are so helpful to have "on the other side" when you fly and can't take everything on vacation. The best? Ice cubes in the freezer - not only made and in the bin, but extras in the ice trays as well.
Couldn't have asked for a better place to make memories with the family! Thank you, Darlene!
