I would not stay here again. We just took our kids here for a family weekend getaway and the place was BEAUTIFUL dont get me wrong, it wasn’t until the 2nd night I it stay was an issue. The hotel is obviously outdated not a problem until I was sitting in dry clothes in the pool area with a leak in the roof splashing me. As well as when trying to sleep you hear EVERY single sound made from ALL surrounding rooms. The beds SUCKED they were hard as a rock and I didn’t sleep hardly any. The key cards stopped working 4 times total during our stay. The guy at the desk tried to tell me I couldn’t recieve “2 extra” wash cloths for our 4 person room when they only gave us two. The breakfast was not good, the waffles and other warm food was gross. And THE BEST PART ( not literal) WOKE UP SUNDAY MORNING WITH BED BUG BITES ALL OVER MY STOMACH AND BACK! We tried to hurry and leave as quick as possible after learning what bites I had on me.

Love this Place 💗 I usually stay here for the Hot Tub rooms,which are Really Nice! This time I took the Grandsons to go swimming and the Only complaint I have is I wish the pool was warmer or the fireplace was on to heat up the swimming area.
