Great place to stay! Loved the taphouse on site. They offered free waffles and coffee in the morning. Had a bonfire on every night for anyone to join. Quiet and serene surroundings. Roomy cabins and so comforable! I was so pleasantly surprised.

We stayed in the off-season, so not much going on, but I imagine the taproom and community bonfire during high season would be great. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. ##### Erica Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy May 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I love everything about this place, from the service to the view.
