Nice facilities, and outstanding customer service... discovered after the fact that check in was required before 10p, but we were much thankfully cared for despite the late night arrival. Looking forward to future trips with them and highly recommend!

High cost for this accommodation. Campground would have been better. Loud AC, rude check in, cold stale coffee, small room, rough discolored towels. Would avoid. Staying in the”lodge”.

Me and my husband throughly enjoyed are stay. The front desk receptionist was very helpful and friendly which is very refreshing. We have stayed at many places were that was not the case. The rec center was lovely, nice little kitchen. When we weren’t out and about it was nice to go to the rec center and play pool and air hockey! Very satisfied with are stay!

The Convenience store is a few miles away to get your beverages, or your coffee early before the office opens up with their coffee. Nice place though.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
No coffee in the room, no ice available without purchasing $7 bag, and I asked nicely to park my car out of the way while we were riding our bike and was told I had to park in the back by a bunch of abandoned vehicles, that seemed very sketchy and they would not offer and alternative. DO NOT STAY HERE if you want basic amenities or friendly customer survive that really are the minimum things you want when traveling. I rarely leave reviews but want others to know what to expect

No coffee in the rooms no access to ice, we asked and were told to go to the rec room which didn’t have any ice or we had to pay $7 for a bag of ice. Also I asked to park my car out of the way while we were riding g our bike for 4 days and they had me park in the back with abandoned vehicles and would not allow me to park in the front or side where there was plenty of space
