We usually come to this property 3 times a year. It was purchased by a very nice man. Even the employees said he was super nice. As a regular, the transition seemed seamless. Same employees, same great, caring customer service. The breakfast is pretty good too. I recommend the biscuits and gravy. Great pillows and towels. Sad they got rid of the hot tub.
