What guests think
At Grey Squirrel Resort, guests praise the peaceful, cabin-style setting and convenient location near town and Boulder Bay, but reviews frequently note inconsistent cleanliness and maintenance, with some units feeling dated and occasional issues with hot water or amenities.
Staff are often friendly and helpful, though check-in can be rigid and communication inconsistent during problems. Cabins are spacious and cozy for families or groups, but comfort varies, with creaky or uncomfortable beds, limited cooling in hot weather, and sparse kitchenware in some units. Facilities are mixed: several reviews cite closed or poorly maintained pool and spa, while outdoor firepits and open space are appreciated. Expect a rustic stay with good value if you prioritize setting over polish.
