What Our Guests Are Saying

Highly recommend visiting Sunset Cove—have made an annual trip for over 20 years. The family atmosphere and comfy cabins make this resort top of the list. Perfect for big crowds or intimate getaways

Katie Gergen-Penson

Great place, very welcoming. Cabins were very clean. The docks and area outside the cabins are well kept. It’s got that family touch you can’t buy. Awesome food—we probably ate 10 orders of cauliflower bites. Bar had a good staff, the brothers killed it.

Nick Pease

What a GREAT place! Super family friendly, everything you need is close by. Grounds were cleaned daily and everybody was sooo nice! Would definitely recommend and can’t wait to go back again!
