I thought the cabins were adorable and cozy. The pool and hot tub were clean and clear. The property was well maintained. The cabin room has a king size bed which takes up most of the space, so it is designed for people who travel with little amounts of luggage.

We had a wonderful stay with our family of 6! The space was perfect. Could have a little more lighting inside. Very accommodating! The closing time of 8:00 for the pool and hot tub was disappointing. It didn’t allow us much time after a day of exploring/sights and dinner.

Perfect location for all of the attractions! Cute little town with several dining options! Front desk was friendly and accommodating! Our cabin was clean and surrounded by woods which we loved! The only thing is they are not queen beds wish we would have brought a blow up mattress for a little more sleeping comfort! They may have had cots available but we never asked!
