New cabins debut at state park
Sterling State Park’s first-ever cabin lodging opens Friday, just in time for Memorial Day weekend.
Construction began last spring on 10 permanent waterfront cabins. Work has just been completed, said Nick Sparks, lead worker at the park.
“Lodging was not previously offered,” said Sparks. “This is the first of any lodging for Sterling.”
The first reservations are for this weekend. Many weekends this summer are booked, but weekday dates are still open.
Cabin rental is $170 a night, and there is a two-night minimum.
Nine of the cabins sleep seven and have two bedrooms. One bedroom has a queen bed; the other has a full bed with a bunk above. A futon in the living area allows for two more occupants.
