Clean comfy simple space and within walking distance of breakfast lunch dinner pizza chocolate canned fruits and coffee shops. Easy pre-checkin, text messages that explained well and easy simple text message check out. Will use Iron Horse again!
It was clean, spacious, convenient to town, and had comfortable beds, and a large refrigerator to store our food. The owner is kind, professional and knowledgeable about the area. Would definitely book again.

Over all was good. I’d suggest one or two rooms separated bed or bunk bed. Thanks
These cabin were absolutely amazing. Enough space for us all (4) without being too much. Food across the road at The Bear Trapper was just what was needed after driving 2+ hours (it’s where the front desk is located). However some better mattresses and pillows would be greatly appreciated/needed. If you have back, hip, or neck issues you might want to bring your own pillow and a mattress topper. Everything else was amazing.
Nice staff and great fast responce time to questions and accommodations. I loved the easy access to cabin and property was quiet and clean. I plan on taking my family here again!
We liked having a fridge, microwave and kitchen sink. The place was clean. Some basic amenities like blow-dryer, beach towels, nightstand, kitchen seating & table were lacking.
This was a great, roomy, quiet place to stay. It was pretty new. But there were a couple of things that were kind of off. There was really no place to hang clothes. The one closet was locked. Also no nightstands or suitcase stands. But it was a great stay and I would stay there again.
El lugar esta bien pero necesita 1 mesa por lo minimo. Y tener toallas para las personas que llegaran. Hubo respuesta en cada llamada. Pero tener q estar llamanfo por papel de baño por toallas. Habiendo hecho una reservacion con antelacion. Puntos de vista para que mejoren.
Our stay was great but we were lacking a few creature comforts such as nightsands in the bedrooms. I like to sleep with my phone near my bed so it had to be placed on the floor during the night. Luggage stands would also have been nice. I also found it weird that the kitchen has such a small garbgage can. Also we werent sure what to do with our garbage can when it got full. I would also suggest that a clock on the wall would have been nice. Overall the place was very clean and has that new build smell. Staff interactions were limited but when I spoke to someone they were very friendly. Its also a great central location next to all of the restaraunts and lake spots. We would stay here again.
