"The room is very clean, the only complaint is the jets in the tub in the room do not work. But it was a nice soak. Heating worked great, amazing breakfast. I did not access the public pool or hot tub but it was open. Staff was helpful and informative about everything they offer. "
"The house was nice and big to accommodate our family gathering. Even though it’s winter we had a warm enough day to use the kayaks and fish on the dock. The fire pit was on a slight angle and didn’t have any chairs by it so we didn’t get a chance to use it (I’d change the layout of it). The hot tub was nice. The house has so many activities for kids which was a plus. Plus, it has 3 refrigerators so it held all our food and drinks without needing coolers. So many balconies in this house, such beautiful views. Would definitely stay here again! "

"This was a beautiful home in a great location with a wonderful view. The home was very well stocked and had lots of things to do. Games, kayaks, floats. There were plenty of towels and extra blankets, and pretty much anything you could think of. We enjoyed our stay very much. "
