The host was most welcoming. We really enjoyed this rental

Overall, our family really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was spacious, cozy, and tucked away in a quiet neighborhood that felt peaceful and relaxing. We loved the fun games, the sauna, and that we could bring our pets along. It truly felt like a warm, family-friendly lodge. It definitely stands out as a unique and historical cabin in the area and it so beautifully built. One important consideration for future guests is wildfire season. We learned ahead of our stay that the host has a policy—separate from VRBO’s site, and not posted anywhere—that only if air quality is above 200 on the day of check-in, can you reschedule or cancel. While staff were very kind and helpful when I called with questions, the policy was surprising as AQ above 200 is very unhealthy for anyone, especially for my parents that I shared are elderly and uncomfortable with any level above 100. On our arrival day the air was clear, but by Saturday and Sunday smoke levels reached close to 200 (on Sat/Sun), limiting time outdoors. Room for at least rescheduling, especially for those with respiratory issues would be nice. The policy seemed arbitrary and reasoning for why was never explained, nor explained till I called twice. It needs to be posted. This isn't meant to discourage others from staying - we truly enjoyed it and we are grateful for a lovely place to gather. Just a heads-up to future travelers booking July–September: be mindful of this policy (it's on us for booking during this season).

The cabin was just as expected. Smelled a little funny when we first arrived but once we starting cooking that went away. The basement was a great hang out space. Maybe could do with a light in the parking area. The house was plenty big enough for 7 of us and our pups.

This place certainly had its own charm. Large, warm and cozy, strangely built, and fun! Played billiards, had plenty of room, and being dog-friendly is always a plus. I wouldn't mind a setting of smaller spoons, non-stick and/or cast iron fry pans, and a new kettle, but those are nit-picks. We enjoyed the location and our stay.
