Do not waste your time and money looking at this property. Rented a Premium Cabin with a private hot tub. We got a bathtub with 6 jets in it. We chose not to stay, and company refuses to give our money back.

I was under the impression I was booking a cabin- it wasn’t. Make sure to read the details closely. The outdoor pool and hot tub-not heated, cool water, had tons of dirt and just looked very dirty. The showers in the hotel portion (can’t speak for cabins) are very short and poor pressure. I won’t be booking again.

The overall stay was okay but I was expecting a cozy cabin that I paid for and was given a 1 room one bath motel room that I completely didn’t want and would never have paid the price for it. If I wanted a motel room I would’ve went with a much cheaper option, good stay nonetheless but nothing close to what I anticipated and payed for.

Folded out the couch bed and found dirty sheets and soiled towel. The paint outside door frame peeled off. The porch to enter cabin had a large built up area. Fell off of it twice there was no tape or paint on it to warn you. Door dirty inside around door knob.

Rather camp

If you want to stay at a clean, comfortable place- don’t stay here. The only thing it has going for them is that it’s convenient to the ferry and allowed pets but we paid almost 600$ for a family of 6 …. One step up from camping.

The room itself was clean, and the beds were clean and well-made. However, everything was very old, and the bathroom especially is overdue for an update. We needed a last-minute place to stay, so it was okay for one night, but we wouldn’t choose to stay there again.

Very limited photos of the actual rooms in which you book, little to no lighting outside around the cabins when it gets dark. Uneven ground and bad lighting is a bad combo

A/c could have been better. There was only one in the living area and the bedrooms were constantly super hot during the night. The only other thing is the cobwebs and dust inside.

Bed bugs!

This hotel was recommended by another couple we were traveling with. After checking in, they decided to move to another hotel. We stuck it out. Not the best decision. The cabin was very old and in disrepair. The small fridge with the broken handle froze everything the first night. The TV would not shut off. We had to unplug it to shut it off. This morning when we awoke we both had multiple insects bites on our legs. Do not stay here!

We were disappointed with this stay. Refrigerator was rusty on top, carpet was damp, musty smell in the room. We were expecting a cabin experience and the inside of the cabin looked like a regular motel room, not really a cabin atmosphere. It was ok because of the location but not worth the amount we paid for the room.
