Reviewer Comments:
This cabin is not as advertised. Overpriced! The best thing about it was Little St. Germain Lake! Bald eagles everywhere and lots of good fishing! Our dock was not installed upon arrival to the property! check in is late and check out a ridiculous 8am on a Saturday! Their policy has strict consequences for early arrival or late check out, but they can't have the dock installed?! It took two days to get it in and took like 10 minutes to install. Then it began to collapse so they had to come back out on day 4 to reinstall it. Spiral stairs are a deathtrap! Not only can you fall between the steps, but also through the railing! There was a boxed up washer & dryer stored in the lower level which took up a ton of space. Giant branches, brush, fall leaves had not been cleared from the deck or property. I had to clear it myself just for the family to exit the lower level door and sit around the fire pit. Shower is a rusted metal box - there is a reason why the curtain is closed in the photos. Several screens in the house are broken so flying bugs were a problem. The property is in a general state of disrepair and for the price I should've paid a a couple hundred dollars more and rented a private cabin on this same lake - with a later check out time. Water damage and mold were present. Ceiling damage. A chickadee lived in 1 of the many holes in the cabin exterior wall. This cabin did NOT comfortably fit the 12 people in our group, but it advertises that it sleeps 14. Only 1 set of sheets was provided and only 1 warm blanket, but the cabin has 3 sofa beds. I had to buy a sherpa blanket from the local bait shop. The cabin advertises 5 queen beds, but 1 is a double - okay for 2 kids - uncomfortable for 2 grown ups. Only 1 patio table instead of two - couldn't seat the whole family outside for dinner or inside. We had to eat separate. TV only had 1 channel. The beach at the Birchwood resort was nice - did not have enough kayaks, canoes, or paddles for our family to go out.
