Fox Den Retreat glamping

8/10 Good
"The quiet cabin was comfortable and great for our one night stay. If we had needed to stay longer, we would have needed more information to turn on the light in the kitchen. Not sure how to use the shower as well. The listing should tell people that they do not need to bring their own sheets and blankets."

Amenities were as shown (3 levels of decking, a screened gazebo with fire table, a grill, a couples’ swing, a boat dock with a pedal boat and canoe available and a child’s swing/slide set for the wee ones.
