It was a nice cabin but I think some animal died somewhere in the house there was like dead flies everywhere might just be that they didn't send someone to clean between summer/fall and winter so yeah lots of bugs and some bugs were alive so my kids were freaked out. Really could have used some cleaning before we rented and the pull out mattress needs to be replaced there's some kind of stain that doesn't look good.

My friends and I made fond memories at the rustic cabin. There were 5 beds for us, a mostly furnished kitchen, a black-and-white TV with some DVD's provided, along with some board games and cards. We also had access to tons activities outside of the cabin-- shopping at the local town (Viroqua), visiting Kickapoo state park, swimming at a beach, etc. There are a few things I wish I knew about when booking the cabin; I'd recommend bringing your own cutting boards and knives. We also used bins to store our pantry items because there's a mouse that will scavenge for crumbs (so I'd also recommend keeping a tidy kitchen to prevent it from being invasive). There are locks on the cabin, but they don't work, so I'd just order a "portable lock" from online or something like that. There's a lovely

Recently, two friends of mine and I stayed at the Blakley Hobbit cabin for four nights (five days). After we had already booked the trip, we saw the reviews and were a little mortified with our decision. We went back and forth between deciding not to go, planning a different trip, or trying it out anyway. The reviews told us the cabin was infested with mice, hornets, ants, and bees. We were also concerned about the drunk owner and “no” locks. From this experience we learned, reviews are important but they are not everything; because the cabin (at least in our experience) was not infested with hornets, ants, or bees. There is one mouse that ran into sight a couple of times so we bought 2 mouse traps that we also left at the cabin. The most crucial thing that I recommend you do if you are c

Very poor up keep on the cabin itself, the upstairs feels very shaky and as if it could collapse. Place is absolutely covered with bees as no maintenance as been done in that regard as well. To top it all off the owner came back to the cabin after he had been obviously drinking and started to make and manipulate new rules which eventually resulted in us not even staying one night. Not a safe place to stay, very rude owner.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Michael Hoffman · Jun 2022

When my wife made the reservation, the site had amenities listed as having a/c, sleeps 1-5 people, bathroom (as denoted with a shower head), and WiFi. AFTER she paid, site said there are no locks on the cabin door, and no refunds. We get there and there and the bathroom is an outhouse, there's no heat, there's only one bed, which was a loft. Where do the other 4 people stay. The deck and stairs are rotting away, and there's no modem for WiFi. We did bother staying and will eat the cost. HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED
