Don't care for the new website. Been going here for years.The rates are higher now and the website is different. Cabins are basic. I haven't checked the tent camping rates but it was $20 a night, so I'm sure it has probably doubled. We found a nice Airbnb right on the trinity river, tubing is so fun to do there, it was actually cheaper, and closer. Tannery gulch has nice campsites with a nice swimming beach across from Pinewood.

5/5 ! The maintenance man Ted helped us get our boat started, we stayed for 3 days and the cabins are beautiful and unique! All of the staff are very friendly and accommodating, and its in a great secluded location.

We stayed here the weekend after Labor Day. The family had a blast. The camp was clean and everything worked as it should. Check in was easy and the lady in the office/store was very friendly and helpful. I believe her name was Jamie. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for the wonderful time my family had.

This review has less to do with the cabins, and the location and more to do with the customer service of their upper management team. My fiancé, myself, and family stayed there this summer as we have before. In fact, her family has gone up there regularly for years. In the past, its always been a great experience and things were handled well. This year, was quite different. Our stay there was full of issues. Everything from lack of amenities in the cabin, to parking issues, bad attitude from maintenance guy, and even being overcharged on my credit card. However, I do understand they are under new ownership and its shows. Again, rather than go into detail about our compromised stay, I'd rather comment on their lack of giving a care about their customers. First, it took over 3 weeks to get our deposit back and I had to call at least 5 times to make that happen. Finally, Jamie, their onsite manager just refunded me the money because she felt bad that I had to keep calling. After our stay, I called to discuss us being reimbursed either by a complimentary stay or refund for our challenges we had this last time. I have called onsite at least 10 times, have been re-routed to their owners that seem to not exist, and have been told I will hear back over and over. I have sent an email, called their owner three times, and have talked to the onsite manager at least 5-6 times. We stayed there in July, it's now September with no call back. This is the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. If you don't care about how your customers feel when they stay with you than you shouldn't own the property. Clearly, their customers just aren't important. Its really unfortunate that a place we have found so special in the past has to be mismanaged by a new company who doesn't care if their customers stay is less than extraordinary. Especially when you pay that much to stay there to begin with. Looks like we'll be finding a new summer place to go. :(

0 stars after this weekends visit! No coffee made because the worker doesn’t drink Coffee so she doesn’t make it. Pool closed but no answer as to why since maintenance speaks only Spanish. No noise restriction as we were in cabin 7 and our neighbors partied til 2:30 am!!! Cabins are clean I’ll give it that.
