I love my stay at the cabins, they were comfy and clean. They are right across the street from the ferry station. All the staff is super friendly.
The little town is awesome and full of things to do.
Staff were friendly. The location was great. The water park was fantastic, although looking a little run down. The room was a bit dusty and dirty in corners. The exercise room (3 pieces of equipment total, no weights) was non-functional, with one extremely loud treadmill, a bike that didn’t work and a bike with no seat.
The cabin fully supported my family of 5. The air conditioning was sufficient, the staff was very friendly, accommodating, and helpful. The place was relatively clean. It could've been swept and mopped before check-in, otherwise it was fine. I would definitely return there again to stay. I would save money by bringing a few groceries and snacks because you can easily spend 100.00 on every meal.
We walked everywhere from here and the ferry is directly across the street. The shopping was so inexpensive as well.

The chalet was filthy. The carpets needed cleaning and vacuumed. We had no toilet paper. There was nasty curly hair in the shower and the bathroom was just a filthy mess. The outdoor swimming pool looked like it needed some chemicals, but the inside watermark and pool was nice. The location was great and close to everything we needed.
I thought we might be getting a cabin and ended up in a room in the back of the property. It was not very nice. I asked if we could move to a cabin. They happened to have one available and moved us for a small upgrade fee. We appreciate the staff for helping us with this.
Rooms were very quiet and clean. The only issue we had was both rooms had Twin sheets turned sideways on Queen beds which meant your feet were on the mattress pad where the person the night before had their feet. That's a deal breaker for next trip.

The cabins are beautiful and in a quiet area. The staff helped me when I injured myself on my first day. The air conditioning was refreshingly quiet. The only downside is that you have to ask for cleaning (in general and wastebasket dumping), fresh towels, and change of sheets.
If you want to use the pool, forget about it. It is in dire need of cleaning.
That being said, it was a good experience with a few hiccups.

Pay attention to your booking. Picture may show a cabin but will be a hotel room. They need to do something about the moisture and the mildew smell. There was wrapper in the drawer so I know they don’t clean 100%. Bathroom had mold on ceiling. Was a decent stay though. Water park was fun for the kids and was convenient to the towns. They should spend some money on updates though. Also they need to pay attention to the stains on the sheets and maybe not use those ones. Biggest complaint is when I got home everything that was in the room stunk like mildew. I stayed in the “hotel” side.
We loved everything except the loud toilet.
It was very quiet, great breakfast with bacon, beautiful location, helpful staff. Will check out more Sleep Inns.
Cabins were very charming but old,with mildewy smell. Water park was nice.

Overall cute cabin. Could use some updates but close to everything and nice to park right outside your cabin. Would stay there again. Good to have 2 bedrooms and a living area when staying with children
