The stay was very pleasant.The room was very nice and convenient in all ways.Unfortunately, it was dark early, being December, and while there was a string of Edison lights in front of the cabins they were not on. This posed a problem for my wife negotiating steps along the porches.Was not able to find coffee filters in the morning to brew the coffee that was provided.Everyone was cheerful in the office.I would gladly stay here again!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The cottage we stayed in isn’t good for longer than a three or four day stay. It had no closet to hang your clothes or dresser. There was little to no floor space to leave our suitcases so we had to put our suitcases on one bed and because of that one person had to share their bed with the suitcases. There were no hooks near the bathroom sink to hang your hand towels or washcloths.

Cute property with cabins and RV sites. Right on Crescent Lake with amazing sunset/sunrise views. Tackle shop has the basics at great prices. 3 Bananas restaurant minutes away. A new McDonald’s on the same street! I’ll be back with the RV!

It was lovely, except there was no place to hang clothes and the 15 watt light bulb in the bedside lamp was not bright enough to read by
