We wanted to love this stay. A cute & well-decorated old cabin is pretty tough to mess up, but this stay does. The cons outweigh the pros here & the listing isn't up front. Def not worth the $600 we paid.
PROs:
- Cozy
- Well-decorated & charming
- Great views
- Nice location near Keewenaw.
CONS:
- SAGGING, SOGGY FLOOR. The subfloor is 100% rotten in the main cabin & bath. No little slope — the fridge is shimmed up 4in or so. When our 30lb dog walked through the cabin, the. floor. bounced. The toilet wobbles when you sit on it. Anyone w/ mobility or vision problems could fall or get hurt.
- MOLD WARNING. Complete lack of caulk around fixtures or mounting in bath so shower spills water behind the tub. It runs under the tub & out onto the floor — presumably under the linoleum which, because of the sagging, is pulling away from the tub & wall. Mold sensitivities made this stay very uncomfortable. I tripled my antihistamines & tried to stay out of the cabin. Between the breathing issues from allergies + the grogginess from extra meds, I felt like crap while we stayed here.
- NOT CLEAN. The shower had smudges (ew), no dusting, old, stinky dish sponge... I ended up cleaning the coffee stand myself and rewashing our dishes due to dust and dead bugs. Hopefully the bedding had been changed?
- NOT STOCKED. The listing makes it seem that wood & coffee are provided. They were not.
- LOUD. Literally 50 ft from busy highway w/ shipping & logging traffic. No relaxing here.
