The TV's did not work and we were very disappointed.
The resort had wonderful views of river and we just needed a TV that worked.
We chose this place because it was 2 miles from my son's wedding venue. Reserved 3 cabins for the weekend. We were pleasantly surprised, what a relaxing, peaceful, charming park/campground. The cabins were fully furnished, and quite comfortable. We had an awesomw time, and now plan to return next summer for a much longer stay! None of us wanted to leave!!
Nice getaway, connect with nature, learn about the California Gold Rush, near snow resorts! Cabins are cozy and very well equiped with everything needed.
Our trip went from terrible to good. Our first full day in the cabin, our a/c was broken. The maintenance people said they knew it was broken and had a new one on orderr but we're hoping the current one would make it through the weekend. They tried installing a window unit and when they did, our cabin was 79 degrees... That unit failed as well and it got up to 89 degrees in our cabin! Finally after complaint AGAIN, they moved us to a nicer newer cabin with 2 a/c units. They said they would have moved us earlier but they didn't have any others available. We stayed one more night and checked out the next day, I told the receptionist that I was very upset about the situation. She called her manager and he approved to refund me the cost of the first night that we didn't have AC. I was very happy with this recovery and therefore decided to give them a 4.
