Property was clean and quiet. Satellite tv didn’t work and one heater didn’t work, no compensation for them, owner said they would fix on Monday, sorry we only had it for the weekend. Will stay again, just will complain earlier in the stay!

Particular lights in the very small cabin did not work television did not work when brought up to management at the main office we were told that “they don’t like whiners” and we can “f-ing leave”. I don’t feel that we were being whiners. We paid a lot of money to stay in a very small cabin. At least the lights and TV could’ve worked.

You were harassing our front desk staff by calling after hours over things that could easily be fixed.

The beds were very comfortable and the outlay of the two bedrooms were nice. Need to have fly swatters in every cabin and it would be very nice to have at least paper cups and a roll of paper towels. I would suggest furnishing some utensils and some cooking items. We plan to be back next year.

It was a great little cabin. Way cooler than just renting a hotel room. It's 8 separate cabins. Like on South Beach in sunny FL calls em bungalows and charge's an arm and a leg,we here in ND call em cabins and there damn near the same price of a hotel room.Two 👍👍!

Did not get a queen bed as requested. Lots of flies and no fly swatter. No coffee pot. Nails sticking up on the porch. Limited parking should be noted on website.

The area around the cabin is very quiet and peaceful. The cabin itself is clean and well kept. The check process could be better though as the cabins are located off site away from the motel where you must sign-in. It would be nice if they would list on the website that you must bring all of your own cups, glasses, dishes, etc. There is a small drip coffee maker in the cabin. On the website, it would help if they would list the type of coffee maker available and to bring your own cups. My feeling is they could provide one pack of coffee and styrofoam cups for $140 per night. To get a cup of coffee one needs to drive close to a mile.

Fishing trip stay. No kitchen utensils?
The cabin was comfortable for three people. There were a couple of things that could have been better. 1) To check in, we were required to go to a separate hotel located about a mile away. There was no mention of that requirement when I booked the cabin, either from Hotels.com or in the email confirmation I received from the Lodge. 2) Although the cabin had a kitchen, there were NO kitchen utensils/pots/pans/anything. This was also not mentioned in any booking correspondence.

Great Cabin!
The cabins are great perfect for the 6 of us. Couch pulls out into a bed for the 2 kids. Not many towels in the bathroom but we have been bringing our own anyway. Perfect space for a few nights at the lake. Short drive to the boat ramp. They treat you great when checking in at the hotel and even can run over there for breakfast!
