The cabin was comfortable and perfect for our needs with the kitchenette. The bed was comfortable, which is my #1 priority when traveling. The grounds of the resort are lovely. We enjoyed the lake and the hot tub and appreciated the on site firewood for purchase. Tee, the housekeeper was super friendly and attentive. We had a nice time!
We knew that it would be loud but now that we live in the country it was hard to sleep with the constant traffic.
No hooks in the bathroom made it hard to try to navigate the shower experience, there is plenty of wall space.
We enjoyed the personal touch of yummy muffins when we arrived!
We enjoyed our time out in the canoe but was surprised how tiny the beach area was.
Overall tiny and dark cabin, kind of regret not spending the $ on a more modern place.
