The cabin was pretty clean and quiet. Everything did tilt however, like the foundation was not level. Great location but some upgrades would be helpful. Surrounding areas has lots of great places to eat and also had gas.

We had a cabin this time and it was great.
Slightly older property but it was clean and comfy.
Cabin had a full size fridge/freezer, microwave and coffee maker.
Sitting area had a couch and plenty of room to relax.
Lots of free parking.
Staff was super friendly!

arrived after office hours cabin had no power unfortunately there’s no cell service whatsoever at the cabin so had to stand outside the office after multiple calls and text the number that was provided outside took over an hour to hear anything power came back on for all of five minutes, went right back off still unable to contact anyone from the office ultimately had no power the entiure stay . Mind and you there was no weather issues.
My experience was terrible. Specifics:
1) Reached only to find a notice saying Restroom and shower inoperable. We had to go out in the cold, climb stairs up another cabin to use a restroom. This was very cumbersome for my parents who are senior citizens.
2) Certain lights were inoperable, counters were dusty.
3) They have numbers for after office hours but did not respond when we called for help.
I will not risk staying here again.
Very old and dated. Our first room looked like everything was from the 1960’s, including shower, mattresses, and threadbare carpet. Dark and cavelike. Filthy!!!! Moved us to updated room for next night. Possibly updated 20 years ago. Cleaner but still cavelike with no amenities at all. Wouldn’t have paid $50 but it was more than triple that. You are now warned!

We liked the park model but the bathroom fixtures are for small children with a mirror too high
