Well! How hard is IT really?, to not call back a customer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Today, this am, I called twice and left two detailed separate msgs with yes a phone number and whoever was working there today decided to not bother to call me back as I had a cpl of questioins to ask before booking through Expedia and how I found these guys in the 1st place. Unsettling and I always plan my stays. NOW I super dislike having to write a bad review on it! But it is only way for uncaring souls to just improve to a normal level! Sept 1/25. (550 pm now).

Great location and proximity to wine tours etc. Men's showers were gross. Women's were okay. Common area nice but pool would have been better, given it's the OK and too hot to just sit in the sun. Dont put ANYTHING on the grass (including tents, tarps, camping carpets) or you will get yelled at. Otherwise, not bad. For us it was all about location...if you're reading between the lines, it means we spent a lot of time OFF site. Wifi can be spotty. Also way too many people with random wandering dogs off leash.

We stayed in one of the cabins and were very impressed with how clean and homey it felt. The only complaint is there is no toaster. Just a friendly piece of advice..cabin 3 has a very powerful shower! Prepare to be assaulted by a stream of water - not a complaint at all ( we were just surprised as most places are not more than a trickle). The meeting place in the center of the property had a lot of fun choices of games like a pool table, huge Connect 4 game and places to just hang out and relax. The staff was friendly and gave us ideas on places to try. Thank you for the great visit!!

We checked in for a 6 night stay recently. At check in no one mentioned the town water supply was on boil alert. We pull a 38’ fifth wheel and the corner to get to the rv sites was so tight we were a few inches from rubbing the wall, others obviously had. Our site was also very tight to get into and certainly not as picturesque as the online photos suggest. PS there is no pool. The bathrooms were so so as far as clean, and the men’s room smelled musty. The laundry machines were dirty so we put iff doing laundry until the next stop. We left a day early for a nicer rv park.
