Different than I thought

When we arrived the smoke alarm was beeping on the high ceiling and we notified management. They came immediately!! They were super sweet and friendly. The welcome packet is very helpful. According to the listing on this site, there are two twin bunk beds. However, there is one twin bunk bed. We thought the home was bigger based on the fact that the listing said two twin bunk beds. We were only staying one night so we made it work. It was clean, the onsite staff was friendly/helpful and the area is nice. The cabins are close but there was enough room to fit two cars parking. Overall a bit smaller than I anticipated but a good stay for one night for 7 people.
