This is more of a camping kind of facility. No frills but clean and safe. The proprietors were friendly and accommodating. If you like a little adventure and can forego some creature comforts it’s close to the park entrance which is a great plus. Food is good. We would stay again.

Love the creekside cabin. Great for peace and quiet. Restaurant looked great and got a glowing review from a colleague, but I wasn't able to dine there during my stay to note otherwise. I look forward to trying the fare when I return.
