The room was spotless & the staff were very courteous. Unfortunately, our outside door was propped open every time we went in or out. I removed the doorstop & closed the door, twice, for security reasons. Then, Sunday morning, the door was propped wide open when we went out. There seemed to be a steady flow of people coming and going from the downstairs unit & it was very noisy Saturday night. Also, there were only 3 parking spaces for the 4-unit condo, so we had difficulty finding a parking space close to our unit, for unloading the car, when we arrived late Friday night. Some of the furnishings could be updated, but it was very comfortable.

Everything was clean and in good condition. No complaints. Staff were nice and helpful. Heated indoor pool and the hot cocoa station was a hit with my little one. We’ve stayed twice and think it’s a great place for the price. Centrally located to everything.

It was a nice vacation spot. There were a lot of pros but quite a few cons I will go over. The pros: The property was beautiful and big with lots of amenities. The activities were really cool and included lots for kids and adults alike, such as bingo, build a stuffed animal, paint a cup or ceramic. I love this it added such a fun way to stay on property and still have fun on the chill days. There was coffee from 7-11pm which was amazing and had all types of coffee and hot chocolate and drinks and while getting your coffee there is a little play center for kids in the upstairs. The property is Close by everything you need and right next to the outlets which is amazing. Nice indoor and outdoor pool and a SMALL game room.

Room was clean, pool clean, nice stay The bedroom tv did not have a remote so not able to watch in there. The living room remote did not work for the bedroom one, that was the only disappointing spot. It would be nice if they invested in smart tv’s so customers can log in to their streaming apps.
