The cabin was lovely -- decorated in a beautiful "log cabin" style. The kids loved "camping" in the bunk beds and we were pleased with the amenities provided in the house. It was the perfect space for two adults and two young kiddos. The beach is also a perfect spot to take our young kiddos with lots of sand, shallow water, and tons of fish. The cabin is indeed very close to the owner's home, but does provide some privacy. It is not a 'secluded cabin' by any means, but it is certainly a wonderful property on a lake that the owners share.
However, we were very disappointed to see a "Don't Blame Me, I Voted For Trump' sign flag flying prominently on the dock. The owners certainly have every right to fly whatever flag they want on their own property. However, it is in poor taste to fly that flag in a property available for rent and use on VRBO, knowing many people of other viewpoints will be staying at the cabin. If we had known this beforehand, we would have chosen a different cabin.
The owners of the property were otherwise very kind, accommodating, and welcoming in all of our interactions. They clearly put a lot of effort and care into welcoming guests, and we hope they will use our feedback to improve a great property and not turn-off half of their guests over such an unnecessary detail.
