★★★★★ Cabin is very nice and cozy, but the dirt road leading to the cabin is not nice. It is NOT 20 km from town, yes about 20km dirt road until you get to a main road, but then still 20km into town. on avg it takes 45 - 60min to get to town. and it was not what I expected. If you just want bush, yes it is nice, but if you need to travel town, it is a big NO!!
