Yes, there is wireless internet.  We’ve been promised that the connection speed will be significantly stronger year.  With this, we’ve created a mesh system that provides Wifi to each cabin.  With this upgrade, we’ve added Smart TV’s in each cabin.  We can’t yet guarantee the strength of the signal, but hopefully it will be far better than before.  To assure that you can watch your shows/movies, we recommend downloading them onto your app ahead of time.

All of the cabins have a TV with a DVD player.  The televisions use antennas and only have a few channels.  Most have 3 or 4.  We’ve finally gotten better internet so now all of our cabins have Smart TV’s.  Hopefully, our wifi will be able to support streaming for all the cabins, but we don’t know yet.  To be safe, we recommend that you download some shows/movies on whatever app you use so that you can be guaranteed entertainment on our new TVs.
