Badgers Retreat offers a tranquil setting with beautiful accommodations and a picturesque environment. My stay was marred by an unpleasant encounter with the park manager regarding pet rules, which significantly affected my overall enjoyment. While the lodge was perfect for a getaway, the unprofessional behavior of the management left a sour impression. I would recommend confirming policies ahead of time to avoid any issues during your stay.

Badgers Retreat has some amazing features, especially with the beautiful scenery that surrounds it. I was really pleased with our stay in Poppy Lodge, which never fails to impress. However, my friend's experience in another lodge was marred by poor cleanliness and maintenance issues. While the location is peaceful and safe for families, it's clear that attention to cleaning would elevate the overall experience significantly.

I recently stayed at the park and truly enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and well-maintained accommodations. The lodge we stayed in was perfect for our needs and incredibly clean. However, an unpleasant encounter with the park manager dampened our experience and made us feel unwelcome. Despite this, the location was lovely for walks with our dogs, but the strict enforcement of rules was a downside.
