This is a great place to go and really get away from everything. It was a quiet and peaceful stay. The nearest gas station or restaurants were about 30-35 minutes away because the road is so winding leading up to the resort. The staff was super nice and always helpful. We were disappointed in was the conditions of the hiking trails. They are not kept clear and had many fallen trees on the trails we had to hike straight up mountains to get around. Also, the campus and hiking trails could both use more signs. There is no lodge sign at the lodge or any signs on the trails. This would've been appreciated as we ended up taking the wrong way on one of the trails from trying to guess which direction to go. Besides that, we very much appreciated it was pet friendly. Although charging an extra fee so you can hang out with your fur baby is just a scam in this country. The property grounds were well taken care of and clean. Nice pool. But goodluck actually seeing the lake from your balcony, there is a line of trees by the lake that block the entire view. That was also disappointing. Overall, this was a great state park and we would return if they would take better care of the hiking trails.
