I’d stay again!

Loved the space. Breakfast was delicious Pool and hot tub were nice. Fireside marshmallow making was yummy (but beware you have to pay $30 for 1 hour… that felt steep… likely wouldn’t do that again… took away 1 star for that and the fact I bought my own materials because they ran out. Seemed like it would’ve been free for that reason). The shower was clogged but they fixed it right away. Driving distance to great food and the boardwalk. Great place for business or for families.

When booking through Expedia the hotels give you usually one of their worse rooms and tell you “thats what you reserved.” If we ask to change it. They tell you to contact the third party. This has happened to me now on 3 different occasions. The description on Expedia is the same as on the hotel website but the rooms are not. At this hotel we were put in the ADA room. The toilet was broken and the shower flooded the whole bathroom.
