What was especially great was that the boat slips were covered. The only problem was that sone of the slips closer to the shore were extremely shallow but we parked our boat in a shallow spot (3ft) and we were fine but this is probably not going to be a problem for you because the lake was lowered by 2ft because there was a hurricane going up the coast and the mild thunderstorms that would reach the lake would probably flood it. Other than that the campsite was wonderful and I enjoyed my stay.

That way we maximized our time in the water! Would love to do this trip again!

Ever other boat was passing us in the lake, including every other pontoon boat. The boat itself was clean and worked well but was a bit torn up and dented in places. Only other complaint was the horn and radio not working - supposed to be used to signal danger, etc. They said we had to use the whistle instead of the horn. We asked if we could just get a different boat and the woman replied "I think none of our boats have horns that work."

I…read morereally liked the fact that there were 2 doors for our room. 1 in the back by the parking area for easy unloading luggage and another door in the front that takes you to the balcony overlooking the lake. This place is pretty laid back. Great place for a fishing trip or boating weekend. There is a boat dock right in front, along with some picnic tables and lounge chairs to enjoy the view. Rooms are cute and comfortably decorated. Mini frig and microwave. Bathroom was quite large, but vanity was way too small for any useful purpose than simply a sink. Also, beware of floor and shower area, as it can be quite slippery when wet. No hair dryers, so bring one if needed. The price was reasonable, but the view was priceless. Relaxing and cozy. We would stay here again if in the area.

Seems to be a popular spot for fishermen. The room was a little small but looks like it had had a fairly recent update. It was clean except for one thing - an overly pervasive smell of cat pee in the room. There are feral cats everywhere (which wasn't a problem because I love cats) but how that smell got in the room I can only guess. The smell seemed to get stronger as the night went on. Not sure if other rooms have the same issue or we were just the lucky ones...

My boyfriend is African American and I'm white- not sure if it was a race thing but it's so unacceptable. My boyfriend was nice and kept trying to talk to him and figure out what kind of bikes they had and the guy insisted on continuing to tell us that they didn't have anything for us. Finally he told us that there was only 5 bikes available- but I guess he thought they were out of our price range because he said they're "2,000 though". I guess he thought we couldn't afford it. Overall a AWFUL experience and it's safe to say me and my boyfriend will never return. I would never in my life recommend this store to anyone. Update- called and spoke with the owner to let him know about the service. He was just as rude as the employee, and didn't really seem to care about the feedback. Sad as an owner of a business you don't see feedback as positive and a chance for growth. As a personal trainer very local to this area it's safe to say I will never recommend this to any of the clients I have
