Summary: Everything was great but the bed.. let’s be honest the reason for a getaway in a cabin is to finally get some rest and relaxation and we just could not achieve that in the bed set up here at this cabin. Felt like it was going to fall apart and the mattress was very uncomfortable. This is our 4th stay in other cabins you have there and they were great! We were hoping for the same experience. Please do something to up hold the standard of your surrounding cabins. Thank you!
