We recently stayed in a handicap cabin for an extended weekend. Cabin was nice, clean, and handicap accessible. The bathroom was large, grab bars in the bathroom, and large roll in shower.

**Cons**

#1 - There is no lifeguard at the pool nor are they monitoring. Kids were climbing up the slides and making “trains” on the slides 6 kids deep which was deferring other kids from using the slides.

#2 - Wi-Fi/Cell Service is HORRIBLE. There is a nice JellystonePark app which gives you alerts/advises of activities for the day and sends you alerts however because cell service/Wi-Fi is so horrible, you can’t receive the alerts and they don’t give you a paper schedule.

#3 - Staff. Staff are far from helpful/nice. The older lady in the gift shop/check in has no idea what she is doing. I heard her tell multiple people she didn’t know how to link rewards, etc. At the activities center we paid for some activities with our credit card, no issues. The next day someone else from our group went to pay for activities and were told cash only. I guess the rules changed in 24 hours.

#4 - We paid for a private bear visit to visit at 5:30. We planned our whole day around it and made sure we had all kids at the campsite at 5:30 for the “surprise”. 5:30 came around, no bear. We saw a staff member on their golf cart around 5:45 and flagged them down. They radioed and was told it got pushed back to 8:00 which no one told us about. We explained that’s too late for toddlers so she came back around 15 minutes later to advise Yogi was waking up and would be there soon. Another 15 minutes and Yogi showed up. Yogi was patient and took time to see everyone so overall that turned out fine but we shouldn’t have had to wait.

**Pros**

#1 - Like I said, cabins were nice. Other campers are respectful.

#2 - Lots of activities for kids.

#3 - Kuddos to some staff. One of the activities coordinators (shirt spiked hair) made sure to greet us each time she saw us. Was super nice. The Bear Handler that came to our camper for a private visit was super nice and had a constant smile on her face and took pictures of everyone. She had darker/kinky curly hair.
