Horrible experience! There is an active construction going on in the site. They should not accept reservation while they are have on-going construction of the area for safety reasons. It is very misleading!

This place has tremendous potential to be an excellent glamping resort if it weren't for the trash and close proximity between neighboring tents (You could practically hear a mouse fart in the tent next to you). The showers are open air, but could be enclosed better for privacy. The same could be said for the bathrooms.
