Summary: all was fabulous, we loved our stay....only 1 sugfestion would be perhaps a new mattress in the upstairs attic double. but the cabin was really wonderful hot tub great with lovley view and seemed to keep lovely and hot and clean, unlike some others we have used.had everything we needed and we really loved the unique sauna in the bunker...the hosts were also fantastic and we loved reading about some of their family history.
