"This is a very nice cabin and very equipped. It was very clean on the inside and had all sort of items one might forget e.g phone chargers. The exterior was a little dirty with spider webs and you need an SUV 4x4 to be able to drive the road to the cabin. It is a little bit of a hassle but all in all, I would definitely recommend it. We enjoyed our stay very much and the fire pit next to the river was very relaxing. "

"Had an amazing stay at Molly's cabin. Great communication and she was able to accommodate a few schedule changes prior to my stay. Cabin is just as it looks in pictures. Very remote, approx 2 miles down a dirt road. Kitchen is well appointed with everything you need, has gas bbq grill for outdoor cooking with all cooking utensils. Nice 2 person hot tub on the back porch and 2 firepits to enjoy. One next to the cabin and the other a short walk down next to the creek which was super peaceful, just don't do like me and go down there at night and let your phone die. That was fun walking out of the woods in the pitch dark. If I'm back in the area I would not hesitate to stay here again."
