This is the best place in Zwolle, and our family goes every year. The staff couldn’t be more helpful, and we loved the updates they made to our cabin this year!

It's a clean restroom for being in a park. I could tell it's tended to regularly. San Miguel is an amazing waterfront place to visit, with camp sites and a small beach area, to enjoy the water.
Steven Simpson
Great park to visit and fish, camp or just bring kids to playground. Service has always been above expectations. Very clean and maintained.

Most of these reviews are from 5 years ago, these cabins have definitely been upgraded! I was a bit worried based on the past reviews but me and my kiddos were more than pleasantly surprised! The cabins are very nice, the swimming spot is great! Everything is well kept and updated. Definitely coming again.

Beautiful area, but the cabins have no amenities. Not even a hook for a towel.

We stayed in one of the large cabins while we there to fish a bass tournament. My first impression when i walked in was the smell. I understand its a cabin but it doesn't have to smell musty. We were told the cabin had two queen size beds. It did not. It had one queen size bed that made all kinds of racket when you moved in it. Sounded like it was going to fall apart and the mattress was very uncomfortable. It had a pull out couch which i guess is what they are calling the other queen size bed which had like a 3'' thick mattress on it. It had a nasty looking table for a dinning table in it. This cabin was $115.00 a night. For that amount of money i have since been told there are a lot nicer places to stay at on this lake.The nicest thing about the cabin was the outside of it. Looks here are very deceiving. I don't recommend staying here.
