We had a wonderful family vacation at this rustic resort! The cabins were spacious and immaculate, perfect for our stay. There were plenty of activities for the kids and the beach area was shallow, which was fantastic for building sandcastles. However, the accommodations were indeed somewhat dated, and the water quality could be better.
