Had a wonderful stay at Shanty Creek. Our room was beautiful, clean and welcoming. It was very quiet and relaxing. The bed was super comfortable as well as the bedding, making you feel at home. Loved the fireplace, coffee and mini fridge. Can’t wait to visit again!

It was our first time staying at Shanty Creek and we had a great time! The unit itself was clean and roomier than pictured. It was a very quiet spot for a holiday weekend- the parking area was full but we barely saw anyone else! We loved having access to different areas like the indoor pool and the beach club (though that was a little tricky to find). One thing to note is that the bed is quite soft- we loved it, but know that’s not always the preference for others. Overall we would highly recommend this unit and would love to return in the future!
