What Guests Are Saying
The location of Bolding Mill Shelters is convenient and served its purpose for the visitors. However, the site was not well-maintained, with overgrown grass, cleanliness issues, and broken picnic benches, leading to safety concerns. Reviewers feel the rental price of $80 is too high given the condition of the facilities.

The location was good, water supply was good, parking was adequate. But the shelters were in poor state and many of the picnic tables were broken/no seats. The place is beautiful but shelters need some work !
This price is reasonable, you can actually improve the shelters and charge a bit more.

Grass was over grown, no one came to cut it before my reservation so we didn't even use it. Looked awful, a waste of $80

It was filthy! Everything covered in spiderwebs, pollen, leaves. We paid to rent the place, you would think they would blow it off. Nope, GROSS! Also, picnic benches at BOTH pavilions have broken and missing bench seats. This is unacceptable as people/children can get hurt. The location is great and it worked for what we needed it for, but yall should do better or charge way less. $80 is a bit high when it’s that gross and dangerous.
