Beaver Lake

It was a great experience, right next to a nice swimmable lake. There was even a rock concert at the resort on Saturday, so we had lots of fun.

Great tranquil location, with a nice deck and picnic tables to enjoy sitting outside. Very close to the lake, and peaceful stay. Nice touch to have some games and DVDs while helping to get offline. Could do with a bit more cleaning, but also it's cabin style and understandable.

Pretty cabin on the lake

Lovely property. Really liked all the different outdoor seating spots and the lake was nice to swim in. Screens for all the windows were broken so we had a crazy amount of bugs the first night. Other than that, great stay

Lakeside cabin

Great little cabin. Beautiful lake. Too cold this weekend to swim, but looks like it would be great. Wifi would be nice and some instructions in the cabin. Ie how long trail around lake is, wifi info. Coffe maker is difficult to use under the cabinet. Otherwise. Really nice.

Birthday Getaway

Nice orderly cabin amongst a tightly packed RV park. A two minute walk to swimming or canoeing in Beaver Lake as well as a wonderful trail surrounding. Check-In was made a bit difficult as we were given an outdated code for the entrance gate. It took over an hour for the host to respond and we were not given their phone number. Luckily, other tenants let us in; otherwise it would have been rather frustrating.
