Eric, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

overall, our stay was very nice. The only irritation was that the hot tub jets were not working. Also, too many unsupervised children in the hot tub with goggles on swimming. Maybe should be more enforcement, so the adults can enjoy the spa.

Peter, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice place to stay, but the outdoor pool was for residents only. The inside pool was small. Food was so so and very overpriced. I had the chicken dinner, and it was basically the $8 bar crap that is a NO THANK YOU, for $31, and I’m not really fussy.
Shanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a nice stay.
Denise, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property was very well conditioned and the scenery was superb, the staff ladies were a tad bit rude but the stay was an overall 5/5 I’d definitely return.
