Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

The best!!
I don't have enough adjectives to describe how wonderful this place is. The bed was comfortable, the cabin is so cute. They have everything you would need.
We had spent the day at Redbird SRA and came there after, we parked our trailer and then drove our truck back to the cabin.
We had so much fun the place is beautiful and the setting for the cabin just so nice.

Cute, clean, cozy, quiet. They thought of everything, nice grounds too.
My daughter and I stayed in the Scout Cabin for 2 nights (would have liked one more night) and it was perfect. We loved the quiet, my daughter loved that there was WIFI, it was amazing how comfortable it was!! The land that the cabin is on was very quiet and had nice little trails for us to explore. Loved that we were able to bring our 4 month old puppy with and she LOVED it too. I got a bit turned around heading in and had to call the manager, Nadine, she was so helpful and stayed on the phone with me until we pulled up in front of the cabin. I would highly recommend the Scout Cabin and hope to return in the future.
