8/10 Very good

One night family stay while passing through. The pool was amazing, the caves were beautiful. When we got back to our room the air conditioner was not working. The staff at the front desk came right away and did her magic and it started cooling off right away. We will definitely be back for a longer stay.

It’s a pretty drive to get to the lodge. Trails to walk on. It is an older lodge but it’s clean and well kept. Our room had a balcony that looked out into the forest.

We had a enjoyable stay. A pipe broke in the kitchen and the water was off for a while. The food was really great. The patio door was damaged from the outside. I told the front desk,they were aware of the door. We really enjoyed our visit, we will be coming back

Excellent

Excellent, I stayed in one of the cottages. It had all modern conveniences and was very quiet and the bed was quite comfortable. I felt safe and room was secure. Cottage had a nice kitchen, living room with fireplace, and a back Porch overlooking the woods. The cottage I was in had 2 bedrooms and two bathrooms . I will definitely be back next time I'm in area the cave tours were amazing and the hiking paths were as well.

ON SITE RESTAURANT WAS TERRIBLE! ROOMS WERE FABUL

The lodge and the room were exceptional. But... Whatever you do. DO NOT EAT AT THE LODGE RESTAURANT! Worst food we ever ate. Worst service we ever had. They kept coming out telling us that they were out of items we ordered. The food was terrible and cold. Or really burnt and still cold. We were there over 2 hours. It was really terrible.
