We loved this cabin for our vacation. If your bringing kids- make them stay in bunks and play until an adult gets up lol; you hear every footstep no matter the level! Plenty spacious, love the outside deck areas. You cannot do anything with the pond that’s listed- and it’s a little ways down past another cabins driveway. Kitchen has every gadget you could need including instapot. The downstairs kitchen only has access from the one bedroom or outside...kind of like mother in law suite. All the kids shared that common area on bottom level, we appreciated that. Bring baby gates if you have small tots that was kind of scary. 24 hour surveillance is a bit odd. I would understand car area, and entry points, but a bit creepy while hanging out on the deck in a common area. None of the eight families had any complaints, GREAT vacation!
