This is our 5th visit to gulf highland resort but the first to this property. We had a great time and although it’s a little far from the beach access it was fine with the golf cart. The place was clean and comfortable. It could have had a few more pots and pans, serving dishes a d there were no sharp knives except for steak knives but we made it work even with our extended visit.
