Expect it to be like camping, but with a nicer sleeping experience and kitchen access! There was even a barbecue on each site, which I wasn’t expecting. You are right up next to your neighbours as the pods are very close together, but I didn’t mind.

Common area is unremarkable. There is no wifi signal inside the pod. The bed is not as comfortable as it looks maybe because rather small bed frame. The only lighting is a small desk lamp at the corner. However, picnic table and BBQ grill are a big plus. ##### Lan Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### James 20 Nov 2023 Grass needed to be cut shorter to walk between parking spot on side next to washrooms to our pod which was Sugar Maple to unpack and repack vehicle!

There were restaurants nearby and a great sub shop down the road. Great area to spend a night on Cabot Trail. Neg: I’m not a camper ..if I was maybe this would have left a better impression. I expected glamping and this was not. The cabin was tiny and stuffy. The communal kitchen we stayed clear of and the single bathroom had puddles from the shower that you could not avoid. The communal bathroom had no mirrors. ##### Gina K. Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022
