The weekend we visited was very misty and rainy. You couldn’t see 10 yards in front of you in the park, but we weren’t disappointed because we had a cozy cabin to enjoy! Relaxing in the hot tub after a long hike surrounded by the mountain mist with such a wonderful experiences. Can was clean and cozy and well stocked with essentials like grilling tools and pans. Breakfast at the Lodge was lovely. Excellent service from the staff!

We had a great time, loved the location and the place. We also enjoyed the carpenter bees who buzzed around us throughout the day in the hot tub (although I expect there will be some people who might complain). I think the only complaint we would have, which isn't dealing with the location, but was that the stack of firewood we received seems to have been very damp and would not burn well. Overall, we would come back again.

The cabin was nice but not the cleanest. Went to sit on the couch when we first got there and the couch was covered with crumbs. There were also cob webs on the bathroom walls, behind the tv and above the shower that were reachable.

However, while we really enjoyed the cabin, the cleanliness/condition and provisioning of the Mattie Moo cabin did not meet those high standards set by the lodge/staff. Here is a list of the more troubling issues we encountered: Squirrel fight/extreme midnight-early morning activity which sounded like they were in walls. Woke & kept us up. The outside facia has significant damage which looked like squirrels chewed away wood to access entry. TV - no cable or satellite as stated in description and going out when streaming. These TLC flat screens are well known within the tech world to have very weak processors which cause loss of processing, pixel display interruption and at times complete loss of video/audio. Had too reset programing for multiple streaming channels on multiple times, very frustrating. We reporting issue to front desk was told it was the wind blowing the lines. This happened even when wind was not blowing. No video player as stated in description Kitchen not stocked with enough dishes, flatware, cookware, etc. missing basic utensils such as measuring cups and spoons. Had to ask for more flatware Spider webs in shower Floors needed cleaning. Dirt and dust and dead roaches next to bed. Refrigerator light out, had to order new light as one for the refrigerator was not in maintenance. Microwave light out (replaced by maintenance) Two ceiling lights out Had to put blanket over crack in back door as it would not sufficiently shut and light could be seen (and obviously cold draft and wind) between door and jam. No batteries in the flashlight Wands missing from window shades (maintenance kindly replaced) Kitchen sink faucet extremely loose. Not enough dishwashing pods for dishwasher. Not enough chairs in living area for guests to set. Coach was nice but need additional seating in living area. PS: maintenance was extremely responsive and created an great customer experience. We are not completely discouraged and will probably seek rental but with a larger cabin next time. Really enjoyed the wood burning fireplace but would suggest glass doors the open and close be considered so the heat doesn't escape during the night after the fire goes out.
