This modern cabin was very easy to find (via Hosts’ instructions), but confusing if you’re only depending on GPS. Robbie and Julie’s AirBnB cabin was just off the main road about 5mins from Sturdies Bay terminal.
The cabin itself is situated at the end of a semi long (dirt road) drive way and the lot is very spacious to park almost 4 cars plus the actual backyard could accommodate maybe 10 cars if parked side by side.
As soon as you walk in, the trees that envelopes the property provides such an amazing breath of fresh air with a strong hint of pine.
It’s a quiet area even though it was just off the main road (Sturdies Bay road).
About the cabin...
PROS:
- very clean
- smelled clean
- wood burning fire place was available
- whole infrastructure was made of wood
- 2 spacious bedrooms with full windows
- 1 full bathroom with a small window facing the driveway
- kitchen was stocked with little things you’d find in a hotel room and more
- one room had a “care package” of toiletries and baby friendly items (bottle, baby wash etc)
- binder of information and maps were provided
- spacious -gated patio facing the backyard with a view of nothing but nature
- backyard had a serene ambiance anytime of the day and perfect for stargazing when skies are clear
- there were floorboard heaters in every room
- complete mini- kitchenette with microwave, coffee maker, small portable stove, plates, utensils etc
- storage “house” right outside had wood, for the fireplace (although they were a bit wet from the weather)
- bathroom was clean
- provided us with more than enough towels for all my guests
- beds were comfortable and fully “dressed” (flat sheet, bedsheet, duvet)
- wifi signal was good all over the cabin
CONS:
- cellular signal was spotty (whole island)
- stand up shower was a bit tight for someone over the height of 5’11” with a wider body frame
- toilet flush was slow to fill (which is due to the pipes having a regulator to avoid getting frozen)
Overall, it was a great stay and nothing really bad to say about the whole experience! The four of us were very cozy but had more than enough room to bond indoors and outdoors yet have our personal space as well when needed.
Robbie and Julie were VERY kind & responsive; even agreed to a couple of our requests in regards to logistics and time management.
I highly recommend this place and I hope I can come visit again when the weather is more clear to see more constellations and smell the pine trees.
Thank you soooo much Robbie and Julie for your attentiveness and anticipation of what one may need during the stay!
From a relaxed and happy guest, Anne
