We stayed in a cabin, which was part of Mallard Bay Resort - that sounds more elaborate than it is. It was actually a collection of 9 (?) cabins.
That's ours, with the open door.
Having stairs was a novelty, which never wore off.
It had a swimming pool too, but they'd drained the water out. And what they hadn't drained out was frozen.
The cabin was very pleasant, but also very, very cold. It had a gas heater, and a gas fire. The gas fire looked nice, but had no effect on the temperature of the cabin (as far as I could tell). The heater didn't look nice, and had a small effect on the temperature of the cabin, but was fighting single glazed drafty windows, and -9 C outside. There were lots of warnings about being charged extra if you ran the heating at night, so I put it to 50 F (the lowest temperature the thermostat could cope with), the heater then ran all night anyway, because it coudn't warm the room to 50.
That's slightly unfair though, as it was open plan, and the heat tended to go straight upstairs, warming the bedrooms slightly, before sailing out through the windows.
