Each cabin and cottage can accommodate two vehicles. Any extra vehicles may be parked in our main office parking lot at no additional cost. Trailers and boats must be stored in our designated boat storage area, which incurs a fee of $10 per night.

We offer golf cart rentals, which are perfect for exploring our resort. To ensure availability, please inform us at the time of your booking if you would like to reserve one. We have 4 seaters for $50/day or 6 seater for $125/day.

In addition to complimentary Wi-Fi, our cabins come equipped with 32-inch Roku TVs that offer Spectrum cable and access to free streaming channels.
Smoking is strictly prohibited both indoors and outdoors at our cabins and cottages. A $250 fee will be charged for any smoking violations.

Liked: Cleanliness
Very cute cabin. would be great for young families. the beds, couch, and seats for table were all too hard for these older ladies. we never turned on the tv so don't know about that. the bathroom had everything we needed. the coffee pot needed replacing as it would not work properly. we had fun and enjoyed our one night there.
