"The Old Dam Cabin"is a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgement of its location, and if cozy had a picture in the dictionary, The Old Dam cabin would be looking back at you with a big grin. Sitting next to our “catch and release” fishing pond which comes complete with an old dam, this cabin is perfect for families looking to reconnect. Located right next door is our seasonal Sip Shack Icecream Shop, Public Pavilion overlooking the pond, Play-set with sliding board, and even a doggie park. The Old Dam Cabin even has a private hot tub to help you wind down and relax after a day of hiking in the National Park or simply chasing the kiddies and pets around!
