Clean well equipped cabin and park. We were lucky to arrive on the night of an excellent food truck for dinner after a long drive. There was a camp fire going under cover for people to enjoy

A perfect place to stay
Our accomodation was perfect! A BBQ to cook our fish, and the tools to clean it properly. The cabin was VERY comfortable and spacious, and fitted out with quality gear.
