It is old. It is outdated in the most nostalgic way! My son was super excited about how clean it smelled and the car couch in our room. We splurged on the Elvis room and have no regrets!

It was better the 1st time we stayed

We have stayed before and had a GREAT experience, BUT when we brought our kids we booked the family room, and the kids’ bunk bed was supported by BRICKS. There was no curtain in the kids room and the carpet throughout the whole unit looked as if it hadn’t been vacuumed in a WHILE. The kids had a good time anyways but as for the adults, it kind of felt like a waste of money.

Great place for being on a budget. Really thought the double rooms would have queen beds but they were more like full. We made it work. I love that you can drive up to your room. We were there for a bowling tournament. Everyone liked it there.
