This was our 1st experience at a rental. It was fantastic! Mr. Steve was very communicative when needed. The cabin was clean & had plenty of room for the 6 of us. We stayed for 4 wonderful nights. There was a grill, outside table, campfire with plenty of chairs, & plenty of outlets with USB plug-ins (having teens this was perfect). The lake is just a minute drive from the cabin & was such a treat for all of us. We swam, fished, & even found crystals. Our last night we had a thunderstorm that knocked out the power for just a minute & then came back on. Lots of fallen limbs, which was great for firewood, but inside the cabin we totally felt safe. If there are amenities that you need town is just 7 - 8 miles away with a grocery store, dollar general, gas station, etc. What a great location! It was so perfect that we made Mt. Ida a part of our life story by eloping!! Bring your sunscreen, bug spray & enjoy this beautiful cabin location. We highly recommend staying at one of Mr. Steve's cabins, I know we will be returning!!
