This was our 3rd year staying at the Hermitage cabin and overall it was a good stay. Check-in was simple and the staff were friendly.
As with any place, there are pros and cons.
Pros:
- Private, as you are not on top of any other cabins.
- Wildlife, the deer were such a joy to see each day! Hearing the birds chirping and seeing a squirrel here and there were also enjoyable.
- Covered front porch is a nice place to sit to enjoy coffee, or if it is raining.
- Bonfire pit is for the cabin, and is not shared by others, so that made it more enjoyable - as well as the chairs that were provided.
- Lawn was cut, so no problems with high weeds or anything like that.
- Pots, pans, dishes, etc. are provided.
Cons:
- No full size refrigerator
- Water has a copper taste, so it is best to bring plenty of your own drinking water, as well as any water for cooking, coffee, etc.
- Not a fan of the shower head, as there was not much pressure with the water - plenty of water pressure from the kitchen faucet though.
- Bedroom is upstairs, bathroom is downstairs. There is a comfy reclining loveseat downstairs to sleep on though.
- When sitting on the front porch the 1st morning, fake eyelashes were on the railing of the front porch... we thought they were a feather from a distance, when we were sitting on the front porch the first night we arrived. More of those fake eyelashes were found in the bathroom by the sink as well (these were not mine, as I do not wear them).
