We stayed in a 2 bedroom cabin - it was great.
The park has plenty to entertain both kids and adults and is in a nice quiet location.

Had towels, toiletries, kitchen utensils etc. beds comfy enough. Overall a great stay that kids loved and was safe. My eldest is high needs and he loved it.

We wanted somewhere close to the highway but not the usual “roadside” hotel.
Thought we’d try something new and I’m glad we did. The unit smelled so fresh and clean, super spacious with plenty of spare pillows, blankets & towels.
Highly recommended

Stayed in the Standard 2 bedroom cabin which suited the 3 of us just fine. Nice newly built cabins with A/C, creature comforts and walking distance to the water park, pool and lake.
Only complaints if I had to find them, was the screen door didnt have a locator for the door latch and bathroom door latch didn't line up so it couldn't be locked.
Highly recommended and will be back 👍
