It's good for family accommodations, just a bit far from the town. If you have a car, it's no problem. -The shower tap is broken. Luckily I was solo travelling, no hassle with the others getting turns. -The heater didn’t work. Just blowing air, don’t feel warm at all. I can't say much, solo and only stay for a night. I didn't cook or anything. I might take the kids one day, let's see how they feel.

Great property, really convenient and comfortable. Very nice staff, secure place. The only really bad thing is no internet - you can catch 1 bar of wifi here and there but it's not usable at all. I needed it for work and it blocks access to half of my work systems. However if you got big data plan 4g is available so stick to that :)

Arrived for check in and initial thoughts were that it is nice, quiet and safe. Headed out for a family members birthday, arrived back at our cabin at 9:30pm. Watched a bit of tv and went to sleep. At around 3am a group arrived across from us and continued to party with loud music right through until 6am when the music stopped for about an hour and then started up again. There was also arguing and a brawl in the early hours of the morning. It was quite scary when we are a family with a young daughter.
