Flies and mice 😬!!! Beautiful cabin. Well maintained in a gorgeous location. The new Quadrafire wood burning stove is first rate. But there were so many flies they blackened the windows. I set four mousetraps before going to bed and caught six rodents. I barely got any sleep with them scratching to get in or running around inside. Geez!
