It was small and quiet, like I had envisioned. However, the shower had leaked water onto the floor for quite some time and you could see the spots where mold was beginning to grow. As well as the bathroom had the mositure problem, there was a colony of carpenter ants that had moved in. Otherwise it was fine place to stay. I would try to stay on one of the cabins closer to the river if i stayed again.

There were ants inside of the cabin. The floors were dirty upon entry and the ants made sleeping difficult. The bottom step going up into the cabin was also broken, creating a tripping hazard.

Fun Stay for 2 nights

This was a cute little place to stay in a remote wooded location. It was a little small for 4 adults but would be perfect for 2 adults and 2 kids. It has 2 bunks, Queen on the bottom and double on top. It has a nice fire pit for roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. There was plenty of firewood and starter for two nights. The kitchen had essential items to eat and cook. Beds were comfortable and air conditioner worked well.

By far one of the best Glamping experiences I’ve had. My children had so much fun and our Family dog enjoyed it even more. Very comfortable and cozy at the same time and best part the A/C was amazing after enjoying the hot weather. Will definitely be coming back.
