The tent was in a perfect location with a beautiful view. The grounds have many areas for kids to play and lounging with shared tables, a rope hammock/bed and a dock to fish off of. The tent itself was comfortable and was equipped with much of what we needed. FRANCE had basic cooking utensils (bring tongs and a cutting board if needed) and comfortable bedding. Our kids were with us and on the reservation but extra linens weren't available for the couch or cot that was provided. We had extra so it wasn't a problem but just something to be aware of. The bathrooms were similar to those on the Southside. One room stalls with toilet, sink and then shower. Quick well lit walk from the tents. We stayed on the north side of the park and did all the loops and most of the hike to the south side. Very flat and kid friendly with lots of shade.

Overall it was a great experience except we booked for New Year’s Eve and you could hear gunshots and a bit concerning staying in a tent.

The property was beautiful but, unfortunately, that is the only positive thing I have to say about my experience.
The nearby parking lot was full, and we had to park in an adjacent parking lot (across the street). The area surrounding the property and down to the lake was full of ant hills. When we found the glat, the code that was provided to us did not work. We tried dozens of times, and even tried similar codes (just in case a number was unintentionally off when it was set.) My father tried, as well.
I contacted the owner, but he could not provide me with a code that worked. He asked me to wait while he tried to find someone who could come help. Me, my three young children (ages 7, 4, and 1), and my father waited on the porch for 2 hours. When it started to get dark, we had to drive to a hotel and make alternate arrangements. The owner insisted that the code worked and refused to refund my money. (The Hipcamp website was incredibly helpful with this.)
I travel often and deal with all different arrangements and owners, and I was shocked at how unprofessional and incredibly condescending this owner was. I understand that mistakes happen and incorrect codes are sometimes given, but to blatantly lie and shift blame to the customer (after making us wait for 2 hours) is deplorable.
I cannot speak to the quality of the glat or the experience of staying there, but I can say with confidence that you are out of luck if you have any issues during your stay.

Nice location but bring every thing you need. Did not supply what was advertised (no towels, dishware and cook ware were spotty)

We stayed in Glat #2. First night we didn't have hot water so that made for a cold shower after a long trip but they took care of it the next morning. Thank you Ghandi! In addition to the private shower you also have access to the park showers. In these tents (and their airstreams) you have all the necessities of a campsite without having to pitch a tent. We brought along our stove top burner and kitchen utensils such as a cutting board, knives and thongs and I'm glad we did because the ones provided were a bit worn. The park has a place to rent canoes or kayaks, many picnic areas, a couple fishing piers, a swimming area, and a 4 mile hike! We did the hike and boy was I glad we had that hot tub to soak in afterwards! All in all a great place to bring family and friends in the great outdoors. My only suggestion for our host is to add lighting around the outside sink, grill and dining area. Luckily we brought headlamps so it was easier to cook and eat outside now that the time change has us in the dark at 5pm!

When we arrived our GLAT reeked of animal pee. It was annoying that we had to reach out to get the bathroom and wifi codes and weren't sent them before arriving. I paid for a Glat to sleep 8 . They moved me to a Glat that sleeps 6 ( maybe 2 adults and 4 small children, we're 6 adults!). I wasnt offered any refund of any kind . It was t clear how far we had to walk just to unload the car, was shocked we couldn't park at our site, we were told we could only Bring 2 cars. Also claimed it had a communal hot tub .....it didn't! DEFINITELY wasn't worth the money!!!
