What a great stay! We arrived very late so wrote to the staff when booking (in the amenities section) to text us about getting into the cabin so very late, and they did. And getting in was a breeze. Room is cute and cozy. Air conditioning worked perfectly, and so did the hot water for the shower. I assume the bed is a foam mattress, everything was new. Parking right along the cabin.
The sink really was difficult to use, but we managed just fine.
The WiFi for the TV went in and out, but with patience we were fine.
There was no one there to welcome me when I arrived after a lengthy car drive. When I finally got someone to help me there was no lighting to find my way to the cabin. On the second day I got locked in my room for about 10 minutes and the owner had to literally shive her way in slightly damaging the door. The owner was lovely and it was a convenient stay near the Wild Center but I definitely wouldn't recommend staying here.
Floors where sticky towels and washcloths were dirty. Has to go get towels. No one there to help you or answer your call. Also, no pool, Wii Fii ( no TV)
This place obviously has been being upgraded and spruced up but we had no heat and no hot water. The grounds were shabby as it needed mowed and cleaned up. We should, in any reasonable world, get our money back.

First the name changed from Park St motel to Dax. Was never notified and the address #was not printed in sight. $216 for one night in a deluxe cabin. Didn’t know coin was 4:00 pm and check out 10:00 am!!! When I complained we got the room about 5;30 pm and said 10 am checkout for 2 people to get showers - shower and toilet in one bathroom - 10 am was pushing it. She offered she could probably let us have till just before 11 am when cleaning crew showed up. All white Towels that were dingy or actually dirty. Shower floor looked dirty so we didn’t shower. Definitely NOT worth $216 a night!

Upon arrival I was very nervous since the grass was not mowed, the business sign is faded and the pool has the cover caving in and doesn’t look opened for several years. The office is a mess with very limited hours. However, the little (very) cabin was all new inside. Bed was a comfortable firm memory foam. Bathroom is very small with a sink you couldn’t wash your face without making a flood on the floor. If your just needing a clean, comfy bed with a shower this is fine. No WiFi working took another” star “ off

The beds were top notch comfy. It’s a good place to sleep.
The cabin was a little bit smaller than expected (photos on the website felt a little bit bigger) but everything was clean and comfortable. It was great having air-conditioning because we were there during a very hot week. We planned ahead and brought a an electric frying pan and an air fryer grill so that we could save a little bit of money and cook in our room so having picnic tables out on the grounds was wonderful to be able to take our food outside to eat.
The only downside was the Wi-Fi was very weak, we were not able to use the TV at all because it was connected to Wi-Fi. Thankfully there was a great thunderstorm that we could watch as we shut off all the lights and encourage us to tell some scary stories to each other!
My one suggestion would be to invest in a mesh system for the Wi-Fi so that the signal can reach all of the rooms and cabins successfully. Definitely helpful for parents like me that travel with children on the spectrum.
The contractor who runs the place is a nice guy, however I had to find him to check in on arrival. The room was clean and neat, room was large, the bed comfortable.
