We stayed a long weekend at the Cowboy Creek Lodge for a family reunion. We were 20 adults, and 4 children (12, 11, 8, 6, 4) and we all fit comfortably in the lodge with one room to spare.
Pros: pool, fire pit, spacious community room (needs updating though and only one window ac so it was a bit stuffy in there), AC in each room, plenty of acres to walk around and view the creepy/gruesome Halloween decorations throughout the property (NOT for kids' eyes, we kept them from seeing the more horrific displays further down the property), great location (recommend Wampler's Lake in Hayes State Park), prompt and consistent communication with caretaker, Lisa and easy check-in.
Cons: This property is truly RUSTIC. Be warned that it is not pristine or spotless, the whole place needs a deep clean and serious updating including a few of the mattresses and bed linens (especially the rooms with carpet....pretty gross). Listing states there are only pots/pans so we brought all of our own utensils, plates, bowls, etc. but upon arriving we discovered tons of everything needed to make meals (except knives and forks). We advise asking for a more thorough description of kitchen supplies if you plan on doing a lot of cooking. Minimal AC in the community room with one working fan but the stand was broken. As mentioned, we think the entire place needs some serious updating and a deep clean otherwise it has great potential!
