"The property is located on a unique piece of land. The "backyard" area opens up to the lake and it is very peaceful to sit there and watch the sunset. So, A+ there.
In July of 2026 they are doing construction on the restaurant. I'm glad to see this place get some needed TLC in the form of capital investment. The downside is there is no breakfast or anything like that. There is a coffee shop within walking distance that has breakfast items. In the morning, there is a line out the door. Super popular place. I can't recall the name of it,but it shouldn't be hard to find.
The biggest downside here is that all the rooms are on the upper floors and there is zero AC. Also, no elevator or anything to help you schlepp your bags up the steep circa late 19th century staircase (not the typical 7x11 risexrun that became standardized since WWII). We were there in July and it was only mid 70s in the day and upper 50s in the night and our room was sweltering. If they ever add AC, I'd go back. If not, then not. At least not in July."
"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."
"We had a very nice 2-night stay. Property was well-maintained. There was a gentleman in the office when we arrived; he was extremely friendly and helpful. Pool towels were available, my kids jumped right in (it was a scorcher of a weekend!) The room was a comfortable temp. We didn’t spend that much time it, just wake-up and go to sleep. The fridge is NOT plugged in when you arrive - just a reminder! Our singular issue was the garbage. No one cleaned our room while we were gone (but that’s stated clearly.) My husband tracked a cleaning person but they didn’t speak English and indicated they had no garbage bags. With 3 kids and eating breakfast in the room, the garbage piled up
Pretty quickly; it would’ve been nice for someone to come take it away. Overall, a great place to stay while visiting the Wild Center - just bring your own trash bags!!"
"We stayed in one of the small cabins. The cabin was just as described on the website and in the photos. The bed was comfortable. The porch on the front of Cabin was nice. We enjoyed watching the sunset over the lake. We ate both nights at the restaurant. The food was the best we have had in a long time, with very fresh ingredients and all the staff were friendly. They went above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The service was exceptional with several extra nice touches We will be back ."
"There is no one in the office to do officey things
We only had decaf packets of coffee in our room for some reason .we texted the number that we were supposed to use for contact and nothing .
Three other guest were roaming around trying to find someone to ask about something. I love that I wasn't smothers buy a host but there needs to be somebody in the office. And some instructions on how to use the heat pump and heaters would be nice.
Really nice property and beach and room"
"Dave is a great host,the rooms and property are neat and clean,very fair room rates,awesome view of the lake thru the screened in patio, zero complaints, and i will be staying again very soon.
