The property was very nice. When we checked in, we weren’t told about any amenities or where anything was, we had to explore ourselves to find everything. Which was ok, we just were confused about a few things. The staff was friendly, a man at the front desk at check-in, David, was a little rude and condescending but wasn’t outright disrespectful. We’d stay there again, just will be avoiding David 😂

I have stayed at this facility four times over the last three years and never have I seen the restaurant open. This is not good since they took the microwaves out of the rooms. Also someone from the hotel came to my room at approx. 8:00pm stating I needed to move my car because of pending construction which was happening right outside my window. Very noisy stay. Usually, my stays there are stellar, this time was disappointing.

The cabin that was given to us initially was extremely difficult to locate and had 123 steps down a very steep area in order to reach the cabin we had a traveler with us who had an ankle boot recently placed and she was unable to walk down the steps safely. I asked for another cabin and was given one with less steps but the staff didn’t seem very concerned and I would not stay in those cabins again due to safety concerns related to the steps and the difficulty getting bags into and out of the cabin.
