Fridge froze all our food, there were ants in the room and the shower knob was loose and it was difficult to manage the shower temp and pressure. Wouldn’t stay here again.

A very nice place in most ways. Only complaint (and its minor) is that the parking area is very tight.

My room at Basecamp Lodge was clean and comfortable, albeit a little on the small side. I wish there was more counter space in the bathroom, and there wasn't a lot of space to maneuver around the room. On the positive side, the bed was great, the property was very quiet, and I appreciated the smart TV and strong wifi signal.
