Stayed here with the kids and grand babies for the weekend. It was our daughters Bday. First time here. We like the place. They had many cabins to choose from, and the property was pretty clean. We did have an issue with our toilet not working, and with 6 of us including 2 grand babies, it was important. Management did what they could, but unfortunately had to move us to a different cabin the next day. This was not their fault, and they did what they could for us. It did not ruin our time, and management made up for it on our next visit, which we will definitely come here again. Close enough to town, clean and reasonable, with some rustic cabins

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

Our cabin was absolutely filthy - dirty everything, caked in all corners and windows, mold in shower, spider webs, pee smell, mouse droppings in kitchen cabinets. We were the only people there, but were allowed could only have one bath towel (NO washcloths were provided)each at a time, including for use at the pool. Was told to text to exchange our bath towels after pool use. Grounds and facilities unkempt. Grey Squirrel was an extended family destination for reunions since the early 70's, and we last stayed in 2023. We then moved out of state and came back for nostalgia. What a disappointment. Do your loved ones a favor and don't subject them to this place.

Had a late check-in and Hether was an absolute doll and got to the office super quick. The property itself is beautiful...but just wait until night hits. The soft glow of lights around the property sets an amazing mood. Our cabin (Rustic Romance) was so cozy and inviting. Kichen, utensils, fridge, soap and sponges for dishes...its all there. My one and only gripe is the shower tends to get the floor wet. Other than that, this place has become our escape from city life.

This was the worst place I have ever stayed at. We had no electricity for almost 2 days. Couldn’t shower couldn’t use the kitchen. Couldn’t use anything. Water was cold in the bathroom. The bed stinks so badly very uncomfortable. I would never ever go back there again.

This property is perfect for a long weekend. Has a wood burning fireplace and BBQ. Check-in was super easy and the staff was super nice. Check-out was just as easy. The grounds were kept clean. There is a gas firepit and horseshoes to enjoy and walking distance to Boulder Bay. Definitely will be staying here again.

Fires & Vacuums & no hot water and no refind

The trip started out fine, but on the first night of three nights, the fire alarms went off and learned that there was a fire in a unoccupied hotel room on the third floor, which flooded most of the hotel after the fire department showed up. They proceeded to use water vacuums to suck up the water and yell at each other at 2 AM to about 4 AM that same evening the next morning we woke up to no hot water which they said should be fixed by the afternoon at 4 PM, there was no hot water and they told us there would be no hot water for the next 10 days and to go get a hotel somewhere else or deal with cold water we asked for a refund for the first night stay and have been fighting with them ever since to get a refund so although the hotel was in a great location, the trip and the customer service or a complete and utter disaster
