Upon arrival we were able to check in early and the staff were amazing. We stayed in the 2 bedroom bungalow that was well stocked and clean. We had family arrive with other young children to visit us and while they were playing on the playground the staff set up a bounce house and made everyone cotton candy. The stay here exceeded our expectations, they really went above and beyond.
