Great time away but not as private as I thought

The cabin was lovely; it was clean, had a beautiful riverfront, and a large yard for our dogs to play in. For the most part, we really did enjoy our stay. What we didn't appreciate was being startled by the unexpected surprise visit from the property manager that chose to test the hot tub while we were there even though we had placed the provided Do Not Disturb signs on all our doors. Thankfully, my husband and I were decent and dressed! The other thing I was surprised to find out is that the riverbank directly across from the cabin is a popular fishing spot. We saw three or four small groups come by at various times throughout the weekend. They were quiet groups and weren't bothersome but it did prevent me from enjoying our hot tub during the day because I didn't feel comfortable being so exposed to strangers that close. Again, we really did enjoy our stay. I just wasn't expecting so many interruptions and the lack of privacy we were signing up for. Oh! And one last thing you should know before booking your stay at this cabin, you should have a vehicle with high clearance to get to the property. The roads are paved and don't pose an issue actually getting there but the railroad crossing you have to go over right before the property scraped the bottom of my Subaru Impreza a few times before I could figure out how to maneuver around it.
