Old buildings, old soap that crumbled and did not lather at all, greatly in need of updating and renovations, towels were so thin and rough, hardware falling off cabinets, broken or missing blinds, kitchen was extremely limited with only one plastic set of plates and mixed glassware. Smoke alarm kept beeping all day and night, pillows very thin, no rod or hangers in closet, very bright motion sensored light outside bedroom that lit up the room all night long. Did not sleep

We really wanted to like this place. I did not expect perfection from an older place. Things were unacceptable. We would never go back or refer a friend. We stayed in the Sherwood. The room was very dirty in area. The bathroom is tiny and had mold. The kitchen had rat or mouse droppings in the cabinets. Kitchen walls were dirty. Windows did not open properly. The beds were actually the cleanest part of the room. Carpet soiled. Our room was connected to the front office by a door. We felt like we had no privacy and could hear everything when the office was in use. We lost power first night there. Power was out from 9pm till 8am. That was inconvenient. Come to find out it was for scheduled maintenance. Hotel should have know this and made us aware. Owners of the hotel would make phone calls right outside our room. Totally disturbing our sleep.

Arrowbear "cabin" needs major renovation or demolition! No heat, no blanket, just a thin bedspread. When I went to phone the front desk for a blanket, I realized there was no phone in the room. I put on most of my clothes to stay warm.The grounds are uneven and unlit, so walking to the front desk building would have been unsafe. Microwave didn't work, 2 of the 3 light bulbs were burnt out. Floor in the kitchen is literally sinking, so linoleum is coming up. Bed old and too soft, old foldout couch sunken in. No central AC, just a weird unit standing in the room. Smells; old ashes in fireplace, mildewy bathroom. I stepped on carpet tacks sticking up from transition between lino and carpet. Room was clean. Pool was clean. Parking was very difficult. I had to move my car so other guests could get out.

It was ok. Had a gas leak in the first room they offered. Second room wasn’t as clean/nice. Playground was caution taped. My granddaughters were pretty bummed. It’s ok for the price. But if you’re not into “roughing it”! Then don’t stay here. Bare minimum for the price

Overall a good stay. We ended up here by mistake. However, it does not take away from the beauty of the area. The manager there is polite and accommodating. Since I'm not from the area, I didn't know it would be best to bring our own snacks for the cabin. Luckily we had some stuff before going there. The cabin we got was not meant for bigger people and I'm not super big, but the bed is good but not a lot of space to walk in the room. If you are bigger, do yourself a favor and rent a bigger cabin. Shower was also small and the shower head should be set up for a hose so you can move it as you like. Overall though, knowing what I know now, I can say that I would like to visit again with a better plan and more space. Pet friendly but please make sure your pet can handle noises and not make unnecessary noise themselves. Second night we were greeted by a big dog barking in the cabin next to us. I recommend that if you are in the area and want to stay in a quaint cabin, this is the place.
