Everything you need for a quaint getaway. Worked with me on an early check in, staff was wonderful, food was great! Only bad thing was the hair dryer, which could definitely use an upgrade!! But the resort is so relaxed your hair doesn’t matter at all!

The property and our suite were really nice. The staff isn’t the friendliest. They seemed bothered by the guests. I also left 2 messages prior to checking in and didn’t receive a call back. No one answers the front desk phone. The property though is beautiful, Carvers was fantastic and the rooms are clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Just wish there were more dining options onsite or nearby but our room has a fully equipped kitchen. There was a market nearby but it was a little pricy. For the price of the stay, breakfast and/or water park should have been included. Other than that, beautiful property. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Safe, lovely place! We’ll be back with groceries in tow lol! GREAT PLACE, very helpful staff!!

The heated pool and hot tub were great. The room was nice with full size appliances. Unfortunately, the bathroom floor was in desperate need of washing. Natural surroundings were great. Also decor was very nice. Restaurant was closed as it was off season. Bar served a very good burger.
