Beautiful atmosphere, good property

Very serene atmosphere with lake, ducks and greenery. Very good host who lives on property. He even provided firm mattress as I didn’t like that couch mattress. Ample parking The only issue was tin roof which made lot of noise during rain but after one day you stopped noticing it haha

Cute little cabins near a small man made lake. Quiet and peaceful at night. The staff and rooms were pretty nice. Included a small kitchen and fridge and nice AC. Only issues would be that the place is a bit far from town. If you don’t have a car it’ll be a hike. Also lots of bugs and the rooms aren’t sealed completely so they can get into the rooms even if you keep the doors and windows closed. Still a nice stay id recommend it.

I loved the properly. The outside and buildings a well maintained and are newer. It is visually appealing, and quaint. Cabins are roomy but small enough to let you know you aren’t in your own home. AC+. Host was helpful with helping me setup activities. My only small recommendation is a little dusting of the appliances that are not often used and more towels/washcloths.

Nice hotel but unfriendly management

We enjoyed the stay overall but it was raining all the time and the roof above than bedroom and kitchen was leaking. We had to move the beds. Also, the owner tried to charge us $30 extra per night for kids, even though the property was clearly described as “family friendly” and “kids stay free” on the booking website. Will not come back.

We booked two rooms - one on the lake and one inside. We were offered two rooms - none of them on the lake. The rooms were in opposite directions and my kids had to stay far away from us. They complained that they had a lot of noise coming from the busy road and their neighbors. The owner is very responsive and tried to adjust our rooms but couldn't. Felt very disappointed that we couldn't stay on the lake because that was the main reason I booked the property.
