"Our stay here was very convenient. We arrived late around 2100 and were able to have them do a load of laundry for us. It was a little pricey but we had a group and split it. The shared kitchen was really nice, however it was lacking in a couple of places. There weren’t any bowls, oven or stove top. However, the site was bigger than you’d think with many places to hang out for the night and a restaurant. Very peaceful and would recommend!"
