The girls at front reception were very helpful and welcoming. We stayed in a pet friendly cabin it was clean, small but good for an overnight stay. Pool area is clean and inviting looks like it has recently had a refurbishment done. Short walk down the road to the convenience store, but a drive to go into town for dinner.
