Wonderful

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Lodge worked perfectly for our needs. The road in was very muddy due to the time of year and weather but we were warned ahead of time and all drive vehicles that could handle it. Lots of wildlife and great trails to enjoy the outside. Only negative was the basement bunk room was too chilly for us. Otherwise perfect! And we will definitely be back again.

Fantastic place for large groups

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at camp bliss for 4-5 years with our large group. The house odd perfect with enough beds, a large kitchen and large dining room with table to seat everyone. There is enough space to get away from the group as well. The resort is quiet as well as the lake. Great for tubing and fishing. Close to town. Staff respond quickly to any concerns. Highly recommend!

A Family Tradition that will be missed

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family has been coming to Camp Bliss for several years. Our first year was very very fun playing sardines with all the grandkids, hiding in cupboards and enjoying the fire pit on the deck. Over the years more and more doors have been locked up and reserved for employees only, the pit has been removed and the cost has gone up substantially. This past year will be our last year. And very sad but the five night minimum and increase pricing makes this place to cost prohibitive for our family. I will miss this place.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication

Lack of supplies was disappointing, tons of cobwebs.

The property was fine. However you have to bring all of your own toilet paper, hand towels/hand soap for the bathroom, paper towels, dish soap for the kitchen, blankets and pillows. The lodge was FILLED with cobwebs, yet we were charged extra upon our check out for not taking out the garbages. There was no heads up that we were going to be charged either. The lack of communication on that was truly upsetting. We didn’t say anything during our stay about the cobwebs and I wish we would have requested someone come and take care of them in hindsight.

Blissful Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Honestly from start to finish our experience was wonderful, so much more than we expected. The cabin and grounds were absolutely beautiful and our entire group thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay. The information that was sent to us was very helpful as far as what to bring and the cabin was very well stocked with stuff that we didn't even think of bringing. Gorgeous.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 3rd time at Camp Bliss Lodge. It is a great place to have the whole family together for a shared vacation. They were so solidly booked this year, the lodge was not as thoroughly cleaned as it had been in the past, and the beach was not weed controlled and cleaned out like past years. A great time was enjoyed by all!

Family Reunion Fun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Camp Bliss was a great family reunion location. We used both the Lodge, the Bliss house and the tiny cabins. All were clean and everything in working order. We enjoyed the yard space for outside games, the large gathering space in the lodge for family meals and the swimming at the sand bar was fun for all ages. Since this is a handicap accessible facility, I would highly recommend paving the path to the lake. It was difficult to get our 97 year mother down to the lake in a wheelchair, though easier at the Bliss House because of the shorter distance. Another recommendation would be to have a washer/dryer available to guests. With a 5 day minimum and providing your own towels, it would be appreciated.Wanda was fantastic, always answering our questions. This was our second reunion at Camp Bliss and we loved it.

First Time Staying at Camp Bliss

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were a group of 10 adults. The property was great - really enjoyed hiking on the lake and around the resort. Lots of great space in The Lodge - with only 10 people we did not use much of the space. We did cook and used the kitchen for all our meals - it worked well! A few things about the kitchen - layout could have been better and there were only settings for 9 people/glassware selection was basic.The staff was great. All my questions were answered promptly and professionally. The on-site caretaker helped us with a cehicle that would not start due to the cold - he was terrific!!

Handicap Lodge

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Vacation at Camp Bliss was a great time for our family. We have already booked to come back next year since the lodge accommodates our family well. Lodge was clean and maintained when we arrived and staff was willing to answer or help with anything we needed. Since we have a daughter in a wheel chair there are a couple things that would be nice to upgrade since it is advertised as handicap accessible. A way to get to the lake from the house with a solid smooth surface so that we could easily roll her down to the lake. The path is fine as a route to get there but isn't the most wheelchair friendly. The addition of the new ramp from living room to grilling area was a great addition.
