Wonderful Vacation
My husband and I stayed in the "Papa" cabin, and we had simply the best time. The hot tub was perfect and secluded, the cabin was a perfect size, and everything was clean. They provided laundry and dishwashing detergent which helped with convenience, as we had flown in from Colorado, and didn't have many things with us. We loved being so close to town, but at the same time feeling like we were in the middle of nowhere. The grounds were fun to walk around, and we had a great time playing basketball and trying out pickleball. We don't usually like to vacation in the same place more than once, but will definitely consider coming back here because of how great everything was!

Good Value Location
Cons: Busy railroad right next to the campground. Difficult sharp / steep turn off a busy road getting into the place (larger vehicles beware. Saw a pickup truck have to back up and try again)Pros: Mostly clean. Enough space for a long weekend. Attached hot tub. Minutes from Ruby Falls / Lookout Mountain / Rock City. We stayed in the Papa cabin which seemed to be the only one in the entire grounds with a 45 degree inclined driveway. A few others weren't flat, but if there was rain we wouldn't have made it up this one. There was no TV remote in the master bedroom, which is a shame because vacation nights are the only time my wife watches television. We told them on the 1st night but they never fixed it and wasn't worth calling a second time. Some dust in the dresser drawers which they said they would address with housekeeping. Kids were very happy overall, just keep in mind you're in a rustic area. Train noise didn't actually bother us even though a quarterback could hit them with a football. Actually would recommend this camp site but maybe try another cabin.

Weekend getaway
The papa cabin was great and just the right size for our weekend getaway.
The only thing I would not give a 5 star on is location.
It is not the easiest getting in and out especially in the dark.
But overall a great place and would definitely recommend.

Met exepctations. Great stay. Location was great to all our activities.
Cabin was nice and clean but we did have a few roaches in the cabin one night. We did see the grounds keepers spraying cabins though. TVs wouldnt connect to WIFI. They did send messages to contact them for any support but we werent there to watch television and and to simply enjoy our time away so no biggy. Cabin had all the essentials to make our stay wonderful.
