Memorial weekend
The overall stay was good, but had an issue with one of the upstairs bathrooms. Daughter went to take a shower & had to stop because there was a leak. We noticed water dripping from the ceiling above the kitchen sink. I reported it right away, but did not use that bathroom anymore.
