Wonderful location and waterfront property. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Downside, it’s a bit dated though they are working on that. For example, our water view suite had updated flooring and decent bedding but definitely needed some updates to the kitchen and the water stains on the ceiling. Not a five star resort by any means, but the location, friendly and responsive staff as well as the beautiful waterfront grounds make up for it.

We spent 3 days at Parmers. We had the Shark room. 1 bedroom sleeper sofa and 2 baths. Great location by the boat launch. The front bathroom drain went to the ground under the unit so we used the 2nd bathroom. We told the staff while we were there. Very simple breakfast provided, bread English muffins fruit coffee. We looked forward to the daily afternoon cookies and lemonade. Bed was a small queen which was tough if you are used to a king. The grounds are so peaceful. Close enough to other busy areas to visit while staying in a quiet comfy spot. Would for sure return!
