Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe cabins were quite close together.
The cabin was so clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and easy for us to prepare our own meals. We liked that the decor was not fussy, just simple and very pleasant. The location along the Betsie River was very peaceful and scenic.

United StatesIt was tight quarters maneuvering by car inside the resort itself. Nothing to be done. Turning left out of the resort was sometimes a challenge because of traffic but again, nothing to be done
Cleanliness was outstanding.

United StatesDo not sell campfire wood. They do provide a bundle every day.
Exceptional place. Right on Betsie River. Saw deer and rabbits across it. Fly fishermen in the river. Little fire pit just outside door. Wood provided. Staff very nice. We stayed 2 nights as a staging place for 2 charters. I wish we'd had more time to use the facilities. Up at 330am both mornings. Whirlpool and indoor pool. Very nice place.

United StatesIt was very damp and it smelled of something we couldn't identify. I wasn't too surprised as it is just a cabin and we would book again, but it did dampen our enjoyment a little.
The family who owns and runs the resort are very friendly and welcoming and you can feel that it is family run throughout. We loved the pool and spa, which were fantastic! The little cabin we stayed in was comfortable.

They are so kind and accommodating and polite! I loved this place! My kids thought it was small but for our needs it was great! We’re short though, so if you’re tall good luck showering comfortably lol. But it was great and the pool is nice too!

United StatesThe wholesome vibes here are excellent! You can pick up cards, movies, board games, and other goodies from the main office while it is open. You can fish and kayak in the small, cute river. The cabin is very quaint and cozy, but offers lots of modern amenities. Check-in is easy and everything was very clean and put-together. A great place to stay!

United StatesThere wasn't anything we didn't like.
The resort was very easy to get to. The cabin was well appointed and updated. The beds were actually comfortable! My teenaged boys loved the indoor pool and hot tub. One of the community firepits was conveniently just outside our cabin and was stocked each night with plenty of firewood. Although we didn't end up making use of them, the office has quite a selection of games (board games, cards, etc) that can be checked out during the stay. Check-in was a breeze and the owners are so nice. We absolutely would return!

United StatesThe cabin could have been another 2 or more feet wider and deeper and higher ceiling. The shower is too small to be able to bend forward to shave your legs. Cabin 4 is too small to have a king sized bed in it. A queen size would be better. The bed should be rotated 45 degrees to face the tv. The pool temp and hot tub temp was set too low on Saturday July 2.
We were in cabin 4 and the view off our deck looking at the river was terrific. Other cabins had a more obstructed view due to heavy tree and brush. The little kitchenette was awesome. It's so nice to be able to make breakfast in the morning and have a refrigerator. The indoor pool and hot tub was lovely. It's nice that there is music playing in there. The river is actually usable because it was so shallow, clean, and slow flowing. It would be really fun for kids to sit and play in there. It was great to have a bistro table and chairs on the personal deck and a private use picnic table and charcoal grill outdoors for enjoying family meals or meeting friends.

United StatesLoved everything except possible the parking. We were in town for business with multiple vehicles and the driveways were fairly tight and overflow parking was down below the lodging. Not a big deal really.
The property was very nice, as listed. The owners were very helpful and accommodating. I would stay here again without hesitation.
