Very friendly check-in! I think her name was Jessica. Checkout was quick and friendly. The room was super clean and comfortable. We had enough towels and blankets. The location was terrific. Everything was nearby. We stayed at the motel location, which worked out better since we were traveling with a baby. It was really easy to get in and out, and the room was extremely spacious.

We have stayed there before but in the main house. That time was much better. This time we were in the back building and had a very loud walker above us, a thunder foot! It woke us up. Also, the toilet did not have a cover on it. Nowhere to put your clothes while showering. I also feel like it sprays when flushing, not good.
