Our cabin was very hot during the day and cool during the night. The shared facilities are a cool place to meet different types of people. The common areas have a very 1990s to early 2000s feel which is great, a bit of an era I miss dearly ☺️ This place was great for me, my wife and our 10 month old child. The park is a wee bit overgrown in places however it is very clean and free of litter and the facilities are tidy and free of bad smells and grime. The residents who were across from us were lovely and welcoming and the lady had some stories to tell. I would recommend this place based on my experience here over a 2 night stay."
