Summary: Plenty of space for our extended family weekend. We booked the whole lodge and there was plenty of room for us to spread out. Unfortunatly we didnt have time to get on the river, but we will be coming back to enjoy it next time! The hosts were super responsive and very welcoming.

Summary: Overall the cabin was big enough for all of us. For the most part it was clean. It is an older cabin and could use some updating but it was fine. The negative part is the photos are miss leading on line: 1) the cabin looks like it three levels, and it actually one. 2) the river looks like it is right outside of the cabin and it is not. You can not swim in the river. Also when ever you go outside it smells like dog Pooh. There is not dog Pooh on the cabin yard, but there is a dog, don’t know if it is the owners, around the office, which is right next to this cabin. So sitting outside the cabin or by the fire or going to your car you smell dog Pooh. One of the bedroom doors, in the bigger section, the door knob needs to be fixed. Also the main kitchen freezer handle is broke on one side. Not the best area as far as the looks of the permanent campers. Some of the campers that look like they are permanent there are kinda sketchy or this may be a different park, but it looks like most are permanent and not in good shape. But I would rent the cabin again due to its size. Owner very nice and accommodating. We left several things and she mailed them back immediately.

Summary: Our cabin was clean, comfortable and we had plenty of room for our group. The river is just a short walk away and we did a little fishing. We loved the on-site tube and kayak rentals and had a great time on the river. Our hosts were great and definitely a place we’d like to return to.

Summary: We had a great time. The lodge was nice and clean and fit all 16 of us easily. We had great conversations, games, fishing fires etc... it was very quiet at the camp ground also. We were a little disappointed as the listing and pictures show it is on the water, which is was not. We were hoping that it would have been a little more off on its on, but we still had a fabulous time and made many great memories.
