Our stay at Long Cove had its ups and downs. The cozy tiny houses and beautiful setting are a big plus, but our experience was marred by poor management and issues with service. The extra fees were not transparent, leading to a frustrating start. However, the outdoor activities here were enjoyable, and there's potential for a memorable family experience.

While the accommodations themselves were inviting and clean, the lack of proper maintenance left much to be desired. Both the cleanliness of some facilities and customer service fell short, dampening what could have been a wonderful experience.
