A great cabin & stay for vacation. As stated, steps to loft are steep. But my 7 & 4 year old handled them well. If you or your kids are not comfortable around dogs, I will say a neighborhood dog made a couple visits. Very friendly & went away when told to go. My kiddos loved the little sandy beach & shallow water to play in. The water mat was a hit. We were able to catch several sunfish & 2 bass right from the dock. What an experience for my kids first time going fishing. Overall, a great stay!
