"This cabin was great and clean. I had messaged the owner a few times inquiring about the shower, as my mom is handicapped, and got no reply. There were no pictures of the showers in the photos. There are no tubs all low lip walk in showers with a small bench to sit on. Our only other issue was finding the place as it was not well marked. We eventually found it after a few wrong driveways. The house was adorable and huge, three levels. Such a cute place to visit. The place was clean and well...
