Loved it!

Loved it!
The rustic look and feel of cabin - loved it!  Beautiful lakeview.  Nice campfires.  Relaxing, peaceful weekend. :)  Cabin fully supplied.  Fun fishing.  Wonderful sounds of loon clock.  Accommodating owners.  Great price for cabin. ----Sue & Mike K. (May 2020)

Apparently my family had to let off a little steam yesterday.  This is what happens when I don't keep track of 'em. I haven't refound my own sense of humor yet.  Hopefully soon.  I appreciate their efforts to lighten the load.
