They had a Memorial day barbeque buffett that so good as well, kids and parents enjoyed the game room with pool, ping pong, and air hockey. I personally enjoy staying in different places, but we will be back here with more family next time!!

Pros: Overall we loved our stay at this resort. The property is nice to walk around. They have lots of amenities such as a gym, pool, basketball, tennis, and even tether ball courts. Our room had a viewing balcony with a great view of the trees and wooded areas. The restaurant was very fairly priced. The portions were big and the food was great. The wait staff was top notch and they have dog seating areas. The location is convenient to get to the local town and hiking trails. Cons: I wish I could rate this place perfectly, but our room was advertised as having a queen bed. The bed was not a queen. Twin at best. It was really small. For some reason room service didn't service our room after our first night.

This property is so nice, the gym is awesome as the entertainment room. There’s just this one thing about the rooms that has always bothered me about this place ( this is my third time staying here ) They’re noisy ( you can hear what your neighbors are doing, clanking, tap dancing, moving stuff around and if they have kids, oh well. The second thing is the lack of caring in the rooms is noticeable. For example, if I am paying $160 for a night, I do expect a nicer shower space. I am petit 5’3” and can barely fit in that tiny space, which on top I feel it’s way to

Incredible Place to stay!

We are so glad we discovered this Gem! We stayed for 3 nights mid week and were so impressed with everything at the resort. The staff were all wonderful and kind and very helpful when we had questions. The food in the restaurant is always yummy and prices are reasonable. We loved walking thru the grounds with our dogs and feeling like we were in nature but still surrounded by nice amenities. Had the pool to ourself one day and got a good workout at their gym. Such a lovely place - we will be returning every change we get!
