Postcard Cabins Chattahoochee, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy
The cabins are rustic with a 2 burner cook top and just enough pans and utensils. Excellent provisions. Lighting is sparse with 1 light over the table and a battery powered lantern. If you like to read in bed, consider bringing your own light.

We enjoyed our stay it was a great location. The facilities and the condo were a bit dated. It wasn’t bad though.
