The cabin features oak hardwood floors, a living area with sleeper sofa, fully equipped kitchen with stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, and cookware, plus a full bathroom with shower/bathtub and washer/dryer. Outside, guests enjoy a private patio with picnic table and campfire ring with grill. The cabin accommodates up to four guests and two vehicles.
