I love Lake Dorr cabin! This was our 4th time staying at this little piece of paradise. Everything was wonderful. The pictures show a bathmat. There is no bathmat, so bring your own. I would also bring a front door rug, because it gets very sandy inside without something to wipe your feet on. Also the last two times we were there the light beside the main bed light bulb was dead, unplugged, and this time the light shade fell off as I was trying to turn the switch. I couldn't figured out how to get it back into the brackets. I didn't think much of it since I never sleep in the bedroom anyway. Please don't think I'm complaining. It's just little things that would make the stay a little better. Thank you again for a great stay.

We had a wonderful time canoeing on the lake and cooking out on the grill! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We're looking forward to doing it again.
