Beautiful views, warm lake, and a fun dock for sunning or jumping. The four showers were excellent for our larger group. Pretty well stocked with anything we needed.

Everything was wonderful, we were granted an earlier check in and I feel this may have rushed the cleaning crew as there were a few areas that seemed to have been rushed thru! Otherwise I would 100% recommend this location!
