Pleasant stay.
Check in was smooth and the room and bed were comfortable. Cost to rent linens is much higher than listed on Hotels.com. It was approximately $18 for the linens.

This was a great location for where I was, but keep in mind that there isn't much around. My room was quiet, but the building was loud. The common areas were relatively clean. The staff friendly.

We emailed in advance and I was told that the hours of their reception was different than the hours posted on their door which was also different than on hotels.com. We moved our entire day around to arrive to find a notice posted on the door that said they were open 2 hours later than in the email I received from an employee. We stayed in a cabin that had nothing but beds but access to the hostel/ camping bathrooms/kitchen. In the first five minutes on the cabin, there were 2 large spiders- on my shoulder and on our bed. In nature, so spiders are reasonably understandable and the cabin was clean. We only used the hostel to brush our teeth before we left in the morning but it was overwhelming busy—- too small for the number of guests, and the bathrooms were filthy.

We had a cottage at the campsite, and our experience was not the best. Our cottage was quite far from the facilities and down a hill, which is probably fine under most conditions, but not pleasant when it's pouring rain and extremely windy. The heating was good, but there was some exposed wiring that gave my dad a very nasty electrical shock when he was trying to adjust it at night. The WiFI was only available at reception, and the reception building is tiny---basically a single room with maybe 8 seats. People were crowded inside and standing around, which also made the check-in process a bit off-putting with so many people hanging over your shoulder.
