The beds were uncomfortable. The head part was lower than the feet part ...talk about having your feet above your heart . If you want athletes feet use the shower mat. Called before arriving and the woman told me the rooms were redone and I told her that there was a hole in the door and she said they new about it and told her that the rooms weren't redone and she said the mattresses were which when we got the there they weren't and she said they just done the floors ...also said there weren't any pest in rooms but I killed a small spider and only 8 channels on small tv and if you like old movies then you would like a few channels ..at least we were able to watch the news . Won't come back and we stayed 3days 2 nights which I would of left if I could of got my money back . The swimming pool had leaves and bugs in it but could swim if you really want to swim . Grass needed to be mowed . Thanks but no thanks .

I’m fairly certain I had a bug attack of sorts from the bed. I broke out in bites all over my arms the day after staying there overnight. It is the only hotel/lodge I have stayed in. Now I’m left to deal with these itchy bites.
