PERFECT

We stayed in Oak Cabin & it was perfect (except we didn’t get a fire starter this time & I am terrible at building a fire). The building is sturdy & offers warmth or cool, depending on when you are there. There are fire pits all over so you can enjoy your own company. There beds were comfortable, the decor was cozy. All utensils needed are available. The sound of Pine Creek flowing is relaxing. Only disappointment (which was totally tolerable) was that I wanted a T-shirt from the Welcome Center, but had no idea how to unlock the cabinets to get one. Otherwise, this place is absolutely top notch. I booked the main cabin for October & have decided that even if I don’t find 15 other people to join us, we are still going to stay there!
