Its well equipped kitchen and dining was very convenient. With the bathroom outside the bedroom, we were able to relax and sleep better. The delicious food from the Chinese and Thai food place on the board walk was a nice bonus.

I was able to use the shuttle for the hotel across the street to get from and to the park... the staff was very nice... but the office closed at 8 and so in order to check in you had to be there before then. I was a little unsure about the quality of the water, due to the residue left in the "leak container" under the bathroom sink (the only running water in the cabin. It was right behind the "boardwalk" which was a great location :)
The cabin from the front.
Inside the only room other than the bathroom...
Bathroom :)
Shower :) Good water pressure ;)

Not bad

We stayed in a cabin. It was big, clean and quiet. It had fairly hot water. There was a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The only thing that I was not happy with was the bed. It was very uncomfortable for me.
