"This place was a great find. Very close to the park entrance. We were only at the property for a quick 2 day trip. Our internet went down the first night but it was probably related to some outages. One thing I would say we just had enough towels for showering but no extra towels. There is a great hot tub that they heated up before we arrived which was a very nice touch. Just need the extra towels for hot tub use. Besides these small things it was a great property. "

"The property was absolutely perfect and just as advertised. We went there for dark sky to see the meteor showers, but heads up for dark sky viewers. The neighborhood is not completely dark. Also parents be mindful that some of the games are not really family friendly. just go in first and set those ones aside. It was a lovely experience and I would go again with my family."
