“Your house was absolutely beautiful. Everything was New. The kitchen was stacked the coffee maker grills hot tub. Everything high end-I love the decor. I love the exclusion of the property. I love the back patio. They did it all right the only thing -we couldn’t get the spot lights on in the back so taking a hot tub at night was a little spooky…. This is a great stay for families and friends.”

“Great dog friendly, secluded cabin in Bailey Harbor. Positive: We liked the location of the home. The home was secluded (cannot see any neighbors, the road wasn't close to the home so minimal traffic noise) while being close to the Baileys Harbor downtown. This house seems to be someone's home or cabin so there's more kitchen amenities than we expected (Blackstone, nice pots & pans, KitchenAid mixer, popcorn maker, and more). There are several outdoor seating areas, one with an electric fire so we were able to spend a lot of time outside. The set up of the home was perfect as the master bedroom had a sliding door to outside so it made it easy to let our dogs outside at night. Our dogs definitely enjoyed staying here and quickly relaxed. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Accessing the house was easy. We are already planning on returning to this cabin next year :) Negative: The one downside was the dog fee. The listing did not mention of a dog fee. After we booked the hosts reached out to tell us the dog fee was $50 per dog per night. We brought 2 dogs and stayed for a week which was significant price jump. The host and us were able to come to an agreement, but this is something to be aware of if you're bringing dogs. (Only 2 are allowed, must be crated when gone, and they ask you bring blankets to cover their furniture.) You also do not have access to the garage which was not a problem but we thought we would be able to pull our truck in at night.”
