We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at this property. However, the cabin we were in is in very poor condition. Other cabins on the property are in excellent condition, however, this one should not be rented until it has been completely renovated.

Hard to find property, Poor condition of roads within the property. Cabins were clean but you had to do your dishes if you used any and take out your trash at the end of stay. Minimal amenities such as towels, tissues. Had coffee maker but you had to bring all of your supplies and coffee. In General the place was rustic. Calling it a resort is a real stretch.

Tough weekend

Rather frustrating stay. Apparently an issue with WiFi made it inaccessible for our room and cell signal out there objectively horrible. Hard to keep walking up to office just to text family and friends. Toilet not seated well and rocked vigorously when seated. Shower head splayed like your thumb on a garden hose, only <6ft up, and had to go full heat to get a tepid shower. Staff were lovely however.

I did not stay here, because when I arrived at 11:30PM, the gate to the lodge was closed, everything was dark, and I could not get a hold of anyone by phone. I had to book another nearby hotel for the night.

No concept of customer service

Though the sheets were clean and the room appeared to be renovated the room had an old, musty smell. My wife’s asthma flared up within a couple of hours of being in the room. She couldn’t stay in the room at all and slept in the car that night. When we decided to leave the next day, one night early (paid in advance for two nights), resort staff would not return any of our money from the second night (we would have been glad to receive 50% back) and told my wife it wasn’t possible her asthma flared up because of something related to the room. We stayed somewhere else the next night and she was fine so it was most definitely the room. I wouldn’t stay there again.
