Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The remote control didnt work. Main floor
dirty, like oily or clearner issue. No cups or throw away paper towels.
very firty
Very quiet, outdoorsy cabin-like lodge. Affordable pricing, friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again if I visited the natural bridge state park!
This was a really cute little place and my kids really loved it. It is true, you don’t get very good service at this location, but that’s to be expected. My only issue with the whole experience was the walls were very thin, and you could literally hear the conversations in the next rooms.
I really enjoyed staying here. The room was clean and rustic. I enjoyed sitting on the porch in the provided chairs until i got too sweaty! No wifi here though.
Good location to local restaurants and hiking trails. Nice shower and reasonably clean. Towels could use replacing. It was hot and humid out and the AC was struggling to keep the room comfortable. Bridge across creek to property needs attention.
