5 Stars! We just spent a couple of days for Thanksgiving and had a great time. We stayed in one of the Park Cottages. They are cozy & comfortable and are furnished with such thoughtful detail for both indoor and outdoor living. Great location. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They are winding down for the season this weekend, but re-open in the spring. Book it....you won't be disappointed... 5 Stars! We just spent a couple of days for Thanksgiving and had a great time.

We stayed at the North Fork Cottages this past September for our wedding weekend, and it was absolutely magical! We rented out all the cottages for our friends and family, and everyone loved how beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed each space was.

We also rented the clubhouse for our welcome party and breakfast—it was the perfect gathering spot and added such a special touch to the weekend. Couldn’t imagine a better place to celebrate such an important occasion! We will definitely be visiting again soon !

We stayed in the brand new cabins and thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations. I cannot say a bad thing about the location and the peaceful nature of being in the cabins. I do want people to know a few things so this does not happen to you, it is better to book IN season as opposed to in advance.

I cannot say a bad thing about the location and the peaceful nature of being in the cabins. I do want people to know a few things so this does not happen to you, it is better to book IN season as opposed to in advance. There is also a credit card fee and paying in cash or debit is NOT an option. Our family booked 5 reservations, we booked in January for a peak weekend and we paid $500 more than our family who booked for the same weekend two days prior. Instead of being allowed to cancel and rebook, we were overcharged for booking in advance. Pricing on the website for the cabins is also not very clear or transparent.

What a lovely place! The cottages and bungalows are super cute/modern, the park is maintained very very well by incredibly friendly and helpful staff. It's quiet and cozy, all kinds of amenities in the park and near lots of other fun. Can't wait to come back, thank you again!

The family and I went camping here last month. We got the upgraded spot with turf and a solo stove which I must say was a bit pricey. It was nice having the turf with kids as the other spots were mostly dirt. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I do wish they had trash cans for our trash bags as the wind tended to blow them into the road. Overall not a bad place. Great location being so close...
