I rented a cabin for my boyfriend's birthday weekend. Booking the cabin online was easy and…read moreconvenient. A week before we arrived, I called to let them know that we were bringing a 10lb chihuahua mix. The girl on the phone went over the pet policy, which was pretty standard and understandable. About three days before we were supposed to arrive, my boyfriend wanted us to get there a day early so I called Pope's Landing to see if we could get the cabin a day earlier than planned. The girl told me that they were booked and completely busy, etc. No big deal since I knew it was relatively last minute so I wasn't expecting a "yes". We arrived on Saturday afternoon. The place was pretty empty. I saw one couple walking their dog and a family fishing nearby. I asked the woman behind the counter if they had been busy and she said no. Kind of odd since I got the exact opposite information two days before, so this kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Whatever, no big deal. The woman helped me with finding a restaurant for dinner and the nearest grocery store to pick up some snacks and I was able to rent a boat slip for $10 a night. The cabins look exactly like the pictures. This is a good thing, in my opinion. You get what you see. The floors and sheets were clean, I'm pretty low maintenance so it doesn't take much to please me. The cabin had a full kitchen: microwave, oven, fridge, a grill and fire pit out front, and even dishes and silverware if you're planning on cooking. The WiFi was a little spotty, but the woman at the front desk warned me about that, so at least I got a warning? Besides, we spent most of the weekend boating and fishing. The cabin had Dish/Satellite TV. The TV channels in white were the ones that worked/have access to. I was told that housekeeping would come in the next day to replace our sheets, but they didn't come in until late afternoon. My dog liked the lake and I had to give her a bath. I used a towel to get the dirt off the dog. Housekeeping assumed the dirty towel was because my dog had an accident. I told them that I had to clean the dog. They charged me $250 for the cleaning fee. I'd think that the housekeeping wouldn't know the difference between dog accidents because of the smell of dog waste, but I'm sure they'll believe the opinion of their cleaning crew over my truth. I'd probably lodge here again, if we were to visit Lake Fork again, but mostly because there aren't that many options for lodging. As nice as the place was, I kind of expected more. I guess I wished I had a more pleasant or more welcoming experience..?

Places like this are exactly what you make of them, and for me, it was exactly what I needed…read more After months of being buried in work and feeling worn down by all the noise in the world, I booked a 4-night, 5-day stay to unplug, reset, and just breathe. This was my first visit, so I can only speak from my own experience, but I left feeling refreshed. If you're a nature lover, you'll probably fall in love with this place. There are beautiful ponds, towering trees, plenty of birds, and gorgeous scenery everywhere you look. I visited in July, and despite the humidity, I was pleasantly surprised by the almost complete lack of mosquitoes. One thing to know: the atmosphere depends heavily on the weather. My first two days were rainy, so there were only a handful of guests. Personally, I loved it because I was looking for peace and quiet. If you're hoping for a livelier social scene, check the forecast before booking. From my experience, weekdays are generally slower, while weekends are where the energy picks up. The accommodations were comfortable, clean, and had excellent A/C--which you'll definitely appreciate in the summer. Service deserves a special shoutout. The owners and staff were incredibly responsive; anything I needed (within reason) was just a text away and handled quickly. My accommodations included a small cooking range, but the cookware was fairly minimal. The café kitchen was happy to provide extra items when needed, but I'd recommend sticking to simple one-pot meals. The mini fridge also fills up quickly, so pack accordingly. If you're offered a tour of the property, **take it.** I expected a quick walkthrough, but it ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. It was informative, interactive, and gave me a much greater appreciation for the property and its history. Just remember your sunscreen and something to drink. As for the crowd, the vibe is refreshingly body-positive and welcoming. If you're expecting a glamorous **Miami South Beach** runway, this probably isn't your scene--and that's exactly the charm. The people I met were genuine, friendly, and there to reconnect with themselves, nature, and, if the opportunity arose, other like-minded guests. A few practical tips: * Bring your own toiletries--they aren't provided. * Complimentary filtered water is available on tap. * The café is fantastic. The food was genuinely delicious, but it's only open on weekends, so plan ahead if you're visiting during the week. * Nearby towns aren't far away, but delivery options are limited and can get expensive. * Wi-Fi is only available around the common areas, although cell service was surprisingly reliable. * Bring comfortable shoes if you plan to explore beyond the pool deck. * There are complimentary canoes available for the main pond, which made for a relaxing afternoon. One piece of personal advice: don't come trying to impress anyone. Come with an open mind, an open heart, and be unapologetically yourself. That's when this place really shines. One thing worth mentioning for first-time visitors: compared to another clothing-optional resort I've stayed at, special activities are expected to remain discreet and respectful of others. Considering the property spans around 100 acres, that's easy enough to do and helps maintain the relaxed atmosphere. Lastly, they're genuinely pet-friendly--as long as your furry travel companion plays nicely with the resident four-legged locals. Overall, this wasn't just a vacation for me--it was a reset. Whether you're looking for solitude, nature, meaningful conversation, or simply a place where you can let your guard down, this resort creates the space for exactly that. I'll definitely be back.

They held a bonfire on Saturday and we had a great time. They have board games in the main house you can play etc. We stayed in one of the cabins and it was nicely decorated and clean and had everything you need (outside of a bathroom which we knew when we booked it). I would advise providing a mirror at least in the room since there isn't a bathroom. Also, think about printing out a visual map of the property so people can explore on their own and find their way back easier (I can do this for you if you like). The dock at the lake/pond was beautiful and people were fishing and kayaking. All in all a nice little excursion out of the city with "family"!
