I highly recommend this place for anyone on the fence about going! We went out earlier this year and were treated like kings by the land owners. They have obstacles and trails for any level of rider, from stock to buggies on 49"s.

How big of a place is this?
 
Big enough to wheel for 2-3 days without hitting all the obstacles.

We have some green trails, blacks and reds. Our reds definately require full roll cage, but with lockers and 35's you'll be able to do most of the blacks.
 
any cabins a small group of us could rent for the weekend?
 
This place is nasty.....I went a few years back.
