Love the whole environment and historical cabins. Our only complaint, would be that the rangers, need to enforce some type of quiet hours. Our neighbors were beyond loud and going until 2 a.m. It was so bad, that they forced another group, to move uphill to sit at the smaller cabin with the friends they came with. They had been sitting outside of their cabin. Having someone on my site; playing football, while I am eating dinner or doing anything, is unacceptable. Obviously, they just didn't care.
They also need to keep an eye on parking at the visitor's center, where people stand with their car doors open, so they can hold parking spaces for friends.
This really screws the traffic flow up. It was an absolute nightmare, to get turned around and there was a woman who would not, budge. Next thing we see, about ten minutes later, was her friends pulling in to park.

A perfect midday activity after...

Cabins have electric outlets, but a sign on the door tells you not to use them! (perhaps they don't want you to bring heavy duty appliances like space heaters). Cabins are quite close to each other. The upper loop has a dishwashing station which is very helpful. Windows are not drafty. A padlock is provided for the door. The beds could be a bit better (even for a rustic cabin). Very accessible to trails, nearby attractions (Cunningham Falls State Park etc) and restaurants (Thurmont). The heated pool is a hit with kids. Parking can get challenging if you take your car out often in the day, although there is overflow...
