I have stayed there several times. Its a great place, but the cottages could use a little maintenance. New shower heads and some flooring. But those will not keep me from coming. The restaurant and bar are excellent, and the property is super convenient for what we want. The staff are always friendly. Other than a few maintenance needs, i cant say much bad about the place. Will definitely book again in the future. We love it there.

There are old and new units available. We were not made aware of this at booking. Basic doesn't begin to describe the older units. Although advertised as pet friendly, they refused to allow us to upgrade to a newer unit. So we stayed just one night as the older unit was unacceptable. On the bright side, all of the staff were polite, kind and helpful, and they readily agreed to refund our second night.

No thanks.

Do not stay here, unless you like staying in a box, with very poor air conditioning. I think our deck outside was as big as our room. Sink for restroom immediately as you entered your room. As you sit on the toilet, you can reach the very narrow shower, directly in front of you. The bed was no more, at best, a full size. I will say, if I wasn't with my husband, it would have been comfy. Fir 2 people, no way. The AC is a " window unit". They basically cut a whole in the wall. " Tried to" frame it with wood, but you could see outside through the gaps. We had it on 62 degrees the whole weekend and still couldn't have any covers on us at night because it was not cool in there, at all. I'm fine with rustic, but this place is way worse, than rustic. If you insist on staying here, make sure you are on the river side. NOT across the street.They told us at check in, they had a prime rib/seafood buffet for 59.99 Decided to go there for dinner. We had reservations for 11 people. After waiting a while, they said they could seat us, but it wouldn't be together. No problem. Buffet was not stocked with food. Ran out of everything. Those that ordered from menu, they came back & said, they are out of every kind of potato . Brought out Burnt rock hard hush puppies. 2, got their meal way after everyone else. Shrimp and fish tacos not edible, then they had the audacity to put a 20% gratuity on a check because of a party of 10 or more. WE COULDN'T EVEN SIT TOGETHER. Everything terrible

We enjoyed our stay at Cooeys cottages. Our room was nice, clean, and ice cold A/C. The beds were soft. We enjoyed sitting on the porch listening to the nightly bands playing, and the seafood buffet was amazing. The price can’t be beat for a weekend getaway
