a dreamy cabin hideaway

friends had their wedding here. the concierge service felt warm. a knowledgeable man named Owen showed us the hotel in an electric golf cart. the cabin was thoughtfully appointed with all necessary amenities. soft lighting made it very romantic. i awoke to beautiful sunrise hues. carbon-neutral planning was evident.

The heating was on even with warm weather. there wasn't an obvious way to turn it off. individual toiletries were missing. Only dispensers bolted to walls were present. coffee making facilities were a kettle and instant powder.

Acceptable, but Underwhelming

friendly staffdispenser toiletriesinadjustable heating

The staff I encountered were friendly, so that was acceptable.

The heating was on full blast despite mild weather. I couldn't find a way to adjust it. The bathroom had those dispenser toiletries attached to the walls, instead of individual bottles I'd expect at this price point. The coffee setup was just a kettle with instant coffee powder.
