点评:We were very excited to visit stay overnight in Thousand Islands National Park at their oTENTik hybrid tent cabins. We booked site MT-D. We were disappointed by several facets of our 2-night stay.
1. Bugs: at the park, there are so many mosquitoes. There are enough gaps in the oTENTik door frame to allow ants and earwigs into the cabin. The visitor center bathrooms and outhouse are inundated with spiders and mosquitoes.
2. Traffic Noise: The Thousand Islands Parkway is very near the oTENTiks. We could hear Highway noise throughout the night. There are also several night trains on a nearby railway.
3. Variation in campsites: the oTENTik sites themselves are very unequal. MT-Awas near the water and in a grassy area. MT-E is perched quite far from the water. MT-D was quite small and heavily wooded. This information is not provided when booking.
4. Bathrooms/water: The bathrooms were not clean, buggy, and frequently out of soap and/or toilet paper. The only potable water spout was near the visitor center bathrooms, which was about 3-5 minute walk from the oTENTik sites. This makes camp life more difficult; most campsites we’ve been to have water stations nearby.
The Thousand Islands are beautiful and well worth a visit. The park seemed a great spot to launch a boat for a river ride, and the Xplorers staff was excellent and great with the kids; they loved earning their Xplorers dog-tag.
翻译:我们非常高兴能到千岛国家公园的 oTENTik 混合帐篷小屋过夜。我们预订了 MT-D 营地。我们对两晚住宿的几个方面感到失望。
1. 虫子:公园里蚊子太多。oTENTik 门框上有足够的缝隙让蚂蚁和蠼螋进入小屋。游客中心的浴室和户外厕所里到处都是蜘蛛和蚊子。
2. 交通噪音:千岛公园大道离 oTENTik 营地很近。我们整晚都能听到高速公路的噪音。附近的铁路上还有几趟夜间列车。
3. 露营地的差异:oTENTik 营地本身非常不均衡。MT-A 靠近水边,位于草地上。MT-E 离水很远。MT-D 很小,树木繁茂。预订时不提供此信息。
4. 浴室/水:浴室不干净,有小便器,而且经常没有肥皂和/或卫生纸。唯一的饮用水喷口位于游客中心浴室附近,距离 oTENTik 营地约 3-5 分钟步行路程。这让露营生活更加困难;我们去过的大多数营地附近都有水站。
千岛群岛非常美丽,值得一游。公园似乎是乘船游览河流的好地方,Xplorers 工作人员非常出色,对孩子们也很好;他们喜欢赢得他们的 Xplorers 狗牌。
