Lighthouse Point Cabin/Cottage question...

I'm staying at at a LHP cottage next week for the first time and have a couple of questions that I can't seem to find answers to:

- Are any kitchen utensils/plates/cups provided with the cottages? I'm guessing not, but I can't confirm and want to double check before I buy a bunch of disposable stuff!

- Is there a coffee maker - if so - what type of coffee filters did it take (I really need my morning coffee!)

Any tips about how to make the most of the cottages (or cabins) are welcome too!

Thanks!

I've stayed in a LHP cabin twice, and as per MrScott's excellent stories of enjoying the lakeview deck of the cottages I stayed in one this year. There are no kitchen utensils of any kind. There is a small coffee maker complete with coffee, filters, sugar/sweetner, and non-dairy powder creamer. Bring a bathing suit because there is a Camper Village pool and hottub for you to enjoy after a day at the park. If I were you (and I'll do this next time I rent one) I would request a cottage between 10 and 20 because they are at the end of the peninsula near the pier and you can see the lake and bay.

If you like to barbeque you could bring some charcoal and grill up your meat of choice. The deck has 3 chairs on it with a small coffee type table. When we weren't asleep or in the park we were on the deck because the weather was beautiful. I'm sure that you'll have a great time.

Hi Vince982 - Thanks for the awesome reponse. This is exactly the info I was looking for. Thanks for the tip about cottage numbers 10-20 - I've added that request to my 'To Do' list for checkin time!

Also, make sure you're around the cottage for sunset time. You'll have a perfect view. Take a walk out on the pier too if you want some great pics.

Somewhere, Mr. Scott is smiling.

It's thread's like this one that really make me miss MrScott. I wish he could still be the one spreading the work of LHP and answering these questions. I guess now he is spreading the word somewhere else.

Ok Maybe its just me but when Iam online but it only shows Light House Cottages. I thought they had Cabins am I wrong? Thanks

There are both cabins and cottages

The reason I ask is we have 6 going to far with maybe 8! The Cottages hold 6 and cabins hold 8 according to CP website

I would deffinetly go with a cabin with 8 people. 2 in the bedroom, 2 on each fouton, and 2 in the loft.

Do I have to call Reservations to get a Cabin then Iam only seeing the cottages on line!!

I miss Mr. Scott :-(

If you're only seeing the cottage online, the cabin is currently not available for your stay.

Lighthouse Point fills up pretty fast during the summer months,I got the last cottage the week of june 24th, i was lucky

Are the cottages air conditioned?

I have never stayed in the Cottage but have stayed in the Cabins a few times every year. We always buy plastic utinsils and whatever else we need; but I have to say the best part is having a grill so close to you. If you have a small group with you it is a blast to share a cabin.

^^Yes, both cottages and cabins are air conditioned. And, for the record, they are heated as well if the weather requires that.

Never been to Lighthouse point..is it worth going too?

Yes.

Our group actually might be now getting four (4) of them.
