Can't wait to return. BTW... We were there the same weekend as the person with the dogs who left the one star review. We had occasion to speak with the men who work there a couple of times and they were kind and helpful, not at all as this person described. Seems this was more a her problem than a place problem.

It is always AWESOME. It's obviously older but does not feel old because it is soooo well maintained. The grounds with the lakes and the geese with their babies make walking around to get a few steps in, a really nice experience. There's a deck with chairs next to one of the little lakes. All rooms have functional kitchens with pots pans dishes etc. AND a full size refrigerator. I checked out the bigger rooms with the indoor tubs and they are like apartments. HUGE. The indoor tubs have the same hot mineral water flowing through but I found the rooms too warm for me because they are more humid. I prefer the small rooms with the outdoor tubs. But if you have a big group the big rooms are a super bargain and I'm thinking you can open the windows to cool it off. The small rooms all have newer AC HEAT units that are fabulous. I'm not sure about the big rooms. You should ask. The outdoor tubs are showing their age because the finish has worn off from use but they are totally comfortable and always fresh and clean and comfortable. The office hours are short and the voicemail box seems to always be full so gettin in touch takes some patience BUT IT IS WORTH IT if you want a ONE NITE STAY. If you check the reservations calendar and see one available night between blocked out nights, you CAN NOT book it online but they will let you stay one night if you CALL THEM. You just might have to call several times. But again...worth it! If you find this review useful please VOTE!

No need to elaborate on the country - doesn't get more scenic and wide-open beautiful than the Surprise Valley. The Cockrell's are great hosts and truly helpful. The cottages are quite private and located a short drive from the main residence. Note: this is a working ranch, and that's much of the charm and experience - you will see cattle and ranch life (which can be a wee buggy at night, though it wasn't a problem for us - the house was super clean and bug-free). We have fond memories of our stay, here!

He had more damn lights on that thing, burning all night long, than a car dealership. Not to mention, they borrowed the moon tower from the Dazed and Confused set which stayed on all night as well. Needless to say, not ideal if your intent was watching the meteor shower. For an added bonus, the maintenance guys moved a picnic table against our RV door and left it there, trapping us inside! If you just need a place to park overnight and plan on staying there, be sure to pack some bug spray. There was a higher concentration of mosquitoes than I've ever encountered anywhere else in all of my travels. They were large too. If you were so inclined you could probably saddle them for an aerial view of the property.

After trying to communicate the wrong doings of the park it was obvious that the woman that runs the office reservation desk was more than enthusiastic to just be down right rude and nasty. After making reservations a full year and advance, the park decided to change all of the rules and the cost! Do not give these people a credit card! Our stay went from being a 4 night stay to a required 7 night stay and the charge of a "golf' package without authorization! The only thing this woman would do to attempt to accommodate us was to offer that we pack up our entire set up and move to another spot for a night. Even though nobody would be using the spot that we were in, in which we reserved a year ago! End result, we packed up and left a day early. She actually had the nerve, when I was alone to tell me that I could scream, holler and throw myself on the ground and it would not change anything, she was bound and determined to screw us because we spoke up in front of others in our large group! She would not give us the name of the manager or the owners and said we would not be able to contact them. Look at the other "Yelp" reviews and take them to heart! She will make your stay miserable if she can! What a true loss for this park. I hope they get a clue at some point! Another customer lost! Here are a couple insights from other guests: "However the ladies running the inside portion are beyond RUDE. One particular gal older long dark hair was condescending to 6 of us 50 something year old grown ass adults. Everyday she had to prove her nastiness." "Our families have been coming to Likely for many years. This past weekend to Likely was the most unpleasant, unprofessional and rude camp hosts our families have ever encountered." "Screwed up our groups reservation (5 trailers, two nights). They said 2 trailers, two nights. Despite making reservations 6 months earlier and taking nearly $500. Ended up in a dirt lot with gravel. They tried making us feel like it was our fault and offered zero for our discomfort. Overall staff was a bit rude and the "maintenance guy" raced around in a golf cart kicking up dust and rock. It was the last stop of 5 on ourv2.5 week trip and the only campgrounds that failed." "although the scenery is beautiful, if you are going to play golf or interact with the staff , they are snarky and unfriendly," Just a few to think about! Still waiting for our $40.00 golf package refund! If you are an actual owner or management please contact at me shelliesplace@gmail.com
