The campground is amazing just, all the staff is accommodating and very helpful. The only downside is the linens might need to bring your own but other than that it was superb. The staff especially from the store are superb.

The cabin was very clean and updated. The sofa bed was a little uncomfortable but it was big enough to sleep two. Checking was a little confusing, need better instructions where to pick up the key. The place was very nice and we really enjoyed making carne asada in the fire/bbq pit. The cabin was very homey and it had everything needed. We were 6 guests and it didn’t feel crowded at all. We really enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to do it again next year!

We stayed at a lovely cabin. It was very well equipped. Beds were comfortable. The store located at the campground needs more food provisions, but there was a grocery store very close. The laundry facilities were very convenient.

More fun there than in town

There is a front desk. It says there isnt. Also check in is 3 for the cabins not 12. The cabin is small but really how much time are you going to be in there? The grounds are amazing playground swimming basketball tennis and hiking. Lots of kids and families. We will stay here again.

the location itself was amazing! the trip was myself , husband and 2 children. the cabin size was significantly smaller that i thought it would be. after the 2 person showered there would be absolutely no hot water. the heater in the room made a clicking noise all night, we stayed in a cabin and there was wind seeping through under the ac unit . we stayed 3 nights and on check out morning went to the store( that’s supposed to be open at 10 every morning )to check out at 10:30 only 30 minutes before check out and the store was closed. if we hadn’t ran into an employ , i dont know how long we would have waited to check out.

We stayed at the Cabin that accommodates 6 people. It was perfect, cozy, and was enough space for us. There were a few things that were broken/confusing but we didn’t mind. 1) Dinner Table, it was a foldable table where both sides fold down. One side was unable to be used since there was no latch underneath. 2) Fire alarm, it makes a beeping sound. 3) Fridge, some of our food froze. 4) The door to the bathroom does not lock or close all the way. 5) Checking In and Out, there weren’t clear directions but we just figured it out and it was pretty simple. Overall we enjoyed our stay. The Kitchen was fully stocked with equipment to cook a proper meal. There were extra blankets and pillows. The bathroom had provided basic toiletries/towels. There was 2 tv’s also for entertainment (in the living room/main room. Parking space, fit 2 medium suvs right in front of the cabin. Would stay here again!

Best cabin get away

This place was very clean and nice. The front desk check in was very helpful and our cabin was better than what we planned. My kids had a great time and did not want to leave the cabin. Would recommend for a family get away to be outdoors especially during snow season.

Great place for family time

Great place to stay at. We took our 2 toddlers for the first time to see and play in the snow. We loved that our parking was right outside the cabin, there was snow everywhere and a special area where we can slide down the snow. We didnt even have to drive to a crowded snow hill so it was perfect. The bad thing is that you have to shower fast because the hot water will run out and you have to wait a few hours for others to shower. And the microwave seemed to not work for a couple hours then work again, that was frustrating. And there's so many stores and the lake just around the corner. So great location. We will visit here again in the near future. Most likely in the summer.
