After planning a three day stay at this property, we had to leave after one day, ruining our vacation. So disappointing. Things got off to a rough start before we even arrived. The “road” heading up to the cabin is nothing more than gravel. That would be okay, except for the fact that it is very tight and along a very steep grade in several spots. Also, we had to get out of the car at one point to clear two trees out of our path, right next to one of the areas of steep grade. Upon arrival to the cabin itself, we discovered that there was no WiFi, and that the TV had very few channels available. To the owner’s credit, she was easy to contact, but she had no solutions and could only say she had not been to the property in a year, so the solution was to have a Verizon rep call us, which never happened. This was still our first day there. At this point it was late so we decided to head upstairs to sleep. When we got up there, despite having the thermostat set at 65, the temperature had risen to an uncomfortable level. To add insult to injury, we found a COCKROACH in the master bath when we woke up. When I later discussed this with the owner, she said that she expected to find hundreds, but only found the one, implying that I had exaggerated. First, I NEVER said there was more than one roach. What I did in fact state was that, as anyone knows, if you see one cockroach, you know there are hundreds more hidden away. Second, and more importantly, for the rate we paid per night, you should not see any roaches. We really wanted to like this cabin. But it simply was not as advertised. Maybe others will enjoy it, but we had to cancel our vacation two days early. I think that speaks for itself.

We had a wonderful time at Suzie’s Cabin even though it was a bit dusty, and the WiFi was nonexistent. About 2 hours after we left, I got an email saying Suzie has claimed our security deposit. Confused and befuddled to why this happened, because we treat this cabin like our home while we were staying there, cleaned up everything before we left, even bought our own paper towels and garbage bags because there was only 1 garbage bag and no paper towels in the entire house for us to clean with. I called Suzie only to find out that we lost our deposit because the pots we used to cook with was blackened and covered in food. After I assured Suzie that the pots and pants were blackened because of previous usage (not from us) and with normal wear for pots and pants, and we definitely clean it as best as we could and left everything exactly how we found it. She tried to stand by her reason by saying we should have soaked it in peroxide or Ajax overnight and scrub it until it is spotless. I told her, it was not part of the check out instruction that we had to and there was no peroxide or baking soda, the only thing we had in the house is a used dish sponge. I told her that if she didn’t want us to use her pots, she could have mentioned it in our previous conversations, we would be more than happy to bring our own. She was not satisfied with my answers, saying that her floor was sticky and her windows were sticky. I reminded her that we paid a cleaning fee on top of our rental fee for this reason and that we did not left anything sticky, but if that’s what she claims, this is NOT a reason for her to take the damage deposit. Again trying to grasp at straws, she claimed we checked out over an hour late. No, we did not. We were tidying up the house before we left as best as we could, without a vacuum, a mob, and not even windex. And we pull out of the drive way 30 mins passed 10am. I told her if she wants to pull a fast one and take our damage deposit, please don’t try to belittle us. Either that or she wanted us to spend the week there mobbing her house and wiping her windows. I am so disappointed of Suzie’s business ethic as a house rental manager and how she tried to take more money from us after we paid in full for 7 nights rental which included a cleaning fee. If you’re planning to stay here, please make sure you take a video of the house before and after your stay because it seems like Suzie will try to find any excuse to take your money.

BEWARE!!! Cabin was not cleaned when we arrived. We had to go purchase cleaning products, paper towels and trash bags. Cabinet with cleaning supplies has a pad lock. Large dead spiders in both bathrooms and cobwebs covering the cabin. Cable does not have ESPN. We left the property exactly as we found it, probably cleaner. Property manager sent an outrageous email accusing the cabin of being trashed and is attempting to charge another $200 fee. We have pictures before we left, the accusations are FALSE. The property is beautiful, the property management is a nightmare and will file additional charges. DO NOT RENT!!!

The view is great, the overall filth of the cabin was pretty intolerable. The ancient mattresses were very uncomfortable. A thorough cleaning and updated mattresses would do a world of good.

This is a really nice place to getaway. It was just the 2 of us in this very spacious cabin. Coffee on the deck in the morning was amazing. Don't fret over the "offroad" experience to get to the cabin. It's well worth the trouble.

We loved this house and neighborhood! So much to do with 3 young boys and such a beautiful area! Wish we could've stayed longer.

We enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were great. Great views of the water at the beach after a short climb down some steps to the water. Susie was very responsive and great to deal with. The Wi-Fi was a little slow at times but we really didn’t need to use it much for our stay. We had a wonderful time and loved the area! The deck and screened porch were a plus and was so nice being able to sit out and enjoy the fresh air. It is a gated community so a key code or scan card is needed to get in after 6. There are instructions in the check in section. I would stay again! I loved the homie feel of the cabin with plenty of room for us to have our own space.

This property was awesome we loved to log cabin and all its charm. We loved enjoying the screened porches and the fire places. Was a great way to spend some quality time with our family. Didn’t even turn the TV on the whole weekend. Susie was a great host and we would totally come back again.
