Excellent Cabin Near Knoebels, Great Property, Neat, Clean
A scant quarter-mile walk from the cabin to board Ole Smokey. A spacious property, bordered along the rear by the small river feeding Knoebels’ Crystal Pool. It has a small but nice two-seat veranda right at the water’s edge, an excellent place to take morning coffee. The interior dining area has a large window facing the river. Furniture, carpeting, curtains, floors, trim, ceilings, walls - all clean, nice, and in good repair. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Plumbing fixtures and door hardware all in good repair. Plenty of heat to keep the entire place warm during chilly Spring nights. Plenty of cookware, dishes, glassware, utensils and light cleaning supplies to easily cook and clean in the cabin. Plenty of yard space to grill, make a fire, and play outside, and parking right at the front door. Lots of amenities for a family staying there.Although clean, neat, well-stocked, and in good repair, the single bathroom is small; the shower is a small 32” x 32” (possibly 36” x 36”). This would be very challenging for persons of significant girth, and the single, small bathroom would be inconvenient for some.This wonderful cabin does come at a cost, though; for our three-night stay our total cost was 464 per night. On top of that, the security deposit of 1,500 felt more like posting bail than a security deposit, and that wasn’t credited back to my account until two full weeks after we vacated the cabin.
