We have camped at Jellystone Luray 5 different times. They have all been good experiences and that is why we return. This last visit was a little disappointing. This was the first time visiting since we sold our camper and therefore we rented the Deluxe Loft Cabin. The cabin itself was spacious and accommodated our family of 5 but it needed work. The bathtub had a hole in the side. The siding was coming off in a few places which made it look run down. The pots and pans were not usable. They were non-stick and had scratches and the bottom was pealing off. In addition, the porch door wouldn't close which meant bugs could get in. Kind of defeated the purpose of having a screened in porch but we were camping so bugs were to be expected. The floors were very dirty and we could tell hadn't been mopped in a long time. The upstairs loft carpet was dusty and had food wrappers plus a water bottle left behind from the last campers. When I rent a place on vacation I don't want to have to clean it when we get there especially when we pay for a cleaning fee. The driveway at our cabin site #89 was too small to park a vehicle in. We had to park in a lot across the road. Just not super convenient but it worked. It did appear we were the only ones that had that issue. The other cabins had enough parking for at least one car.
The planned activities were good and the kids had a good time the first day. The bounce pillow is always a favorite and the mini golf was fun. The older kids played a round of night time laser tag but the second daytime one for the younger kids got rained out. Unfortunately we went on a weekend when a tropical storm moved into the area. Most of the activities were canceled due to that fact. Weather is certainly not the fault of the camp ground but we do wish they had planned or moved more activities inside.
All in all we would go back. Mainly because the previous visits were good. We will definitely pick a different cabin and hopefully go when there isn't a major storm rolling through.
