Our room was not cleaned. Toilet was disgusting, there was hair in the sink and the shower, toothpaste all over the bathroom faucet, something gross on the bed linens. I changed the sheets because the cleaning staff had gone home. They told me they credited my account for a nights stay and they did not. I should have read the reviews ahead of time... lesson learned

For the price property was nice. Very clean, rooms were spacious and like the smaller water park. It is dated and needs some refreshing. The included breakfast was not worth it, but they rarely are.

I checked in for a one-night stay for an event I was attending the following morning. Location was good and it was close to several options for dining. Upon arriving in the room, I appreciate that it was very spacious and I liked that the beds were in separate areas with the toilet and shower in between. What was a little disappointing is when I entered the room (in the middle of July), the room was around 75°. The A/C was not on and it was stuffy, so I had to turn it down to about 65° as it was a very large space to cool. A little surprised as typically when I've checked into a room they have it set to be somewhat cool when arriving. The other disappointing feature was the bed. Firstly, the room description said 2 queen beds, but they were full size, NOT queen. That wasn't too big of a deal as it was just myself and a friend, but if our wives were with us, I would have requested a different room. Not sure how hard it is to say a queen bed and then actually have a queen bed. I could tell the mattresses were older because when I sat (and then laid) on it, the middle sagged and was noticeably squeaky like they were 20 years old. On a scale of 1-10, comfort was ~6, but thankfully I didn't have to share it as any little movement would have been extremely disruptive to the other person. The other thing that was disappointing was the tub/shower combination It was old and there was a significant amount of water exiting the faucet so the shower had bad water pressure.

This was a very pleasant stay. We had our kids and grandkids and there was plenty of space for the night owls to stay up late, and the kids to have quiet space to go to bed and not be disturbed. We rented a pontoon and there was plenty of room on the dock for both our boat and the pontoon. The owners/management were very attentive to our needs and responded quickly to our requests. Would definitely rent again!

It was a good place for our family stay! Not super modern but everything was good. But we were on the main floor and near to the water park and it was sooo loud with young kids screaming as they were heading to the water park.

Our room was big and clean. We’re an older couple and we thought we probably wouldn’t use the water park. Boy were we wrong. We tried the slides and we were hooked. We used the water park every day! Breakfast was good. A good variety.

Be more specific about the wrist bands per room. J think each person should get one band if they have paid to stay in a room.

We came up for one night for a funeral. The property was clean, extremely comfortable and well priced for an emergency visit such as ours. What we liked about the room was there were two queen beds that were separated into two private areas with a bathroom in between. Both beds have a large screen TV. It was convenient having a restaurant on the premises.
