Noah's Ark Campground - Cabins and RV sites — Hotel in Area E (Eagle River Valley)

When we arrived and went to check in for our 6 person cabin at an advertised cost of $65.95 (as per their website and phone call back in April) the kind lady really helped us by adding a per person fee also of around $4 per person per night...Mmmm... so I kept quiet after all we and she knew we couldn't find anywhere else at this point. But hey she said we could have complimentary coffee in the morning...yay complimentary coffee...wait a minute I just paid an extra $4 per person per night! Then to keep us in the real camping feel she asked 'can you bring your own cup?' Wait a minute... I don't have cups! Hence the cabin rental, no coffee for me...or I might just take one of the paper cups they had hidden...hehe. Then we were told about the ice cream and the incentive to buy. We got a dollar coupon to spend between the family! Yeah! So we went to get our ice cream after going to the cabin. Climbing the stairs and entering the FroYo bar my kids eyes lit up and so did my bank managers, it was roughly 65cents an ounce. But hey we had a dollar to spend, a lick of the spoon each :) yeah! So the next morning after dreaming about our FroYo I went to get my...ahem..complimentary coffee in a nice cup...but wait...I'm no coffee connoisseur but it was watered down so much I though satan had come during the night and peed in the coffee urn... ah well I thought I'll go get showered and ready for the day... before I went to relieve myself of my own coffee brew and found the urinal behind...wait for it... a curtain... good thing I'm not self conscious...lol. Then to the shower, yes we had one shower for all of the great campers to share...so line up time...

Ah well, at least I was here with friends, well at least some... you see friends in the other cabin also paid a $4 per person per day fee that's not found on their website...but hey they got a gift..sucks for us I know. They were making a bed and they found a nice long brown surprise...you see after satan left the coffee for me he left a number two under one of their mattresses...lol. So they went down to talk to the good old hostess again and also asked for a splash of milk from the opened milk in the fridge for their complimentary tea (they brought their own cup), of course she said 'it'll be $3.50 for the milk' bahahaha... so they didn't mention the brown surprise and so it remains...fermenting....

Then our other friends arrived but they couldn't stay because our good hostess had rented their prebooked cabin to someone else...lol

All in all, if you really desire a campground with septic tanks covered with rotting plywood, a kids park on the road with cars, surprise costs etc and absolutely terrible and lacking amenities then this is the camp ground for you :) just make sure you have all your shots, life insurance...

This is not a resort but it is a wonderful campsite, with basic cabins and an RV park. I spent 6 very happy days here.

Compared to the better public campsites this place has got it all for a super reasonable price, nice warm, clean washrooms with power flush toilets, showers (foot towels provided). It also has a well stocked basic supply shop. In addition to this a public eating area with everything you need to cook, gas bbq, pressure cookers, microwave and I saw a smoker. Tea and coffe provided as well as cooking and eating utensils.

The cabins have three large 3/4 bunks and for under $30 you can get bedding, there is a coin operated laundrette, one extra person stays free and it’s a ridiculously small fee for anybody extra. The cabins also have a microwave and a portable wood grill you can cook on.

This place has soul and it comes down from the top. The second night there I lost my hearing aid, around $3000 at about 10pm . The owner aka Noah saw me wondering around and then good heart wandering around very distressed he then spend the next hour and a half looking for them with me, in the light rain and found them for me. I was blown away by this.

So I rented a cabin for $60 a day with all those facilities, it was huge value tor money. I also forgot to mention Noah enforces a strict quiet time from 11pm, there were no wild parties etc just peace and quiet.

Here are a few things to consider:

If you are thinking resort you will be disappointed but it’s a great campsite. I did a motorcycle trip here and there are some truck drivers who are bullies on this road, I hope some unspeakable things happen to them. The campsite is around 25km out of town, so arrive with supplies for your first night, just in case you arrive arrive late. Yes you will hear some traffic from the road but I slept better here than in other places far from roads because of the zero tolerance for...

Let's get to the best part. The staff. The ladies that helped us were awesome from start to finish. Now the not so good to bad part. We travel so much through Canada and the USA, well not the USA this year because of cheese head trump. Anyway, we get that there are good places and places that need some TLC. We travel as a need just to put our head down to rest up for the next days adventure. Everything about this place had beed Staged from pictures from the past. It's at residential campsite with bags of bottles and garbage everywhere. Fire Pits of those cabins that were shown in photos are filled with trash. The cabins in on the website are No where near to that standards as presented in the photos. Broken down trucks, trailers and heavy equipment are everywhere. Rental trailers are set up in a way that it's mind boggling as to if it is level. Campsite bathrooms and laundry are some Of the most disgusting I have ever seen, and I have been across Canada and the USA twice. The place we rented was the ark. It's in the top floor of this make shift boat. This thing moved all night long and we wondered if we were going to fall apart. Our room was so bad and it felt like The permanent resident that used to live here just moved out 30 seconds before we moved in. There were no blinds on the kitchen window, the blinds on the door did not Work and we had people(residence) walking by during our stay. The two sofas were massively stained along With the dining table with sticky stuff. The dining chairs were also stained to the point that we put towels down to sit. I'm not going to get into the shower and bedroom But let's put it this was, we left there feeling dirty and unclean. I'm sorry I had to write this review but it holds true. We also feel that the positive reviews on this site are bogus and ment to attract. Your...
