Accommodations were ok but room temp was about 80 degrees until about 3:00 am when the window unit finally caught up. The bit was around 73.

Cabin was cute and clean, with comfortable beds and a full kitchen. The basketball "court" needed repair, pool was a weird green, never found the volleyball court... property could have used some attention overall. Front desk lady was pleasant and checked us in quickly.

NO lake access.
We stayed in March or 2024. The cabin was nice but the lake was very dry. No way to do any fishing or water related. I just wish they would have told us before the trip that the lake around them was bone dry and not at all what the pictures show. The staff was very friendly and we still had a great time. The tram ride is pretty cool. Rooms are what you would expect for a cabin made to house mountain bikers and off roaders.

Great location, comfortable bed!
The location of the Thunderbird Cabin was perfect for my plans that involved a night time trail run at Spider Mountain. Couldnt be a better location. I was SO GLAD for the very clean, comfortable, and cute enough accommodations. The staff I worked with to make reservations, find my way and to problem solve were super helpful and very friendly.

Awesome rural spot. Dirt bike park. Lots of trails and good little hiking potential. Near the river. Drought when we stayed but imagine it’s extra gorgeous when the rivers full. Staff is great! Thank you!

Perfect minus dirty floor
The cabin was super cute! Adorable decorations and colpr scheme was perfect. Very grateful for the full kitchen! Did notice that the floor was very very dirty throughout the cabin. Felt like walking in a fastfood kitchen. Barefoot walking was absolutely not possible. The chairs on the front porch were cracking so we couldn't sit in them outside. Even with the dirty floor we still really enjoyed our stay. Very friendly. Kind and respectful place.

Fun place - low to the ground amenities, reminded me of a KOA park. Awesome access to their cool mountain bike trails and fishing (weird combo). The staff is super sweet and took great care of me. Going back next year!

Cozy clean cottage with two beds. Full equipped kitchen for long stay. (I stayed one night but next time I will stay longer!). One downside was “flies” . I guess due to piled garbage bags, there are lots of fries. (I could manage but this is the only negative point). Other than that, receptionist is so smiley and friendly. I highly recommend this place
