The bar and staff are really nice. They have a courtyard area with fire pits the vibes are great. Only issue was the room was very humid and sticky with alot of nats in the bathroom. I discovered the dehumidifier in the morning and it was completely full maybe it would have been better if we emptied it before bed. They are just opening so maybe they need time to smooth over the little kinks. I would try again in the future. ☺️

I loved this place. The suites are in these cute little houses that used to be a kids camp. The outdoor dining/fire/games area in the middle is great. I met several other guests at the campfire.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. What really made our experience special was the amazing service. Kat, the General Manager, was incredibly welcoming and attentive. She made sure we felt right at home and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We truly appreciated her kindness and professionalism. We’ll definitely be back!

This accommodation is hardly a hotel as there is no office or staff on site. Check in and out were done remotely via text. The place looks like a refurbished motel with small room spread out in a row and no office. Positives were the comfort of the bed and the quality of the bed and bath linens. Both the Expedia and Ruschmeyer’s website have been changed since we booked the room.The information available when we made the reservation stated our room would have a porch. It didn't. The grounds look like a party location with tables, umbrellas, bean bags and hammocks, all in disarray with rubbish strewn about. Rubbish bin was overflowing. Virtually no flat surfaces for belongings, no luggage rack. No drinking glasses or hand soap in bathroom. The shower curtain was filthy & the soap rack fell down. The bathroom floor looked like it hadn't been swept or mopped. Poor ventilation. Bathroom window sealed shut. The double-hung window was inoperable. There was a chemical smell in the room from a dish of solid air freshener that we placed outside the room. The de-humidifier hadn’t been emptied. The throw pillow on the bed had streaks of paint on it. We are experienced travelers and found this place to be a joke.
