This optional program includes use of the resort pools, fitness center, and daily fitness classes, as well as access to the tennis and pickleball courts (complimentary use, based on availability), The Spa at The Boulders, and a 10% discount on golf green fees.

Comfortable and spacious!

Spot was great for my friends and I! My only concern was how hot it was in the house when checking in. It did eventually cool down though! Would stay again!
