The pool was ok. Most unfriendly staff ever! Very dirty, stained towels and sheets. Pool towels were literally mix matched like the were donated from goodwill. Lets not discuss the free breakfast. The entire hotel had to share a gallon of milk if the wanted cereal. Overall just a nasty dirty place. We paid 1400.00 for 3 nights. At exactly 11, they locked me out of my room when i was trying ro load mt car. And my dogs were srill in there!

For the price, I feel that the room should’ve been cleaner. It is a very old building and it shows. And the fact that we found someone else’s underwear, dirty or not I don’t know, in the bedding was a definite turn off. When we told the staff, basically they just blew it off giggled and said sorry didn’t even offer a percentage off the price or anything. In addition, the golf carts don’t work well. I would not recommend nor what I stay there.

Motel quality at resort pricing. We booked a two bedroom suite for a family of five, we arrived to a packed lobby with one younger guy behind the desk doing a good job of getting everyone checked in in a timely manner, the wait wasn’t too long considering he was by himself. We got our room keys, and got to our room. We were first greeted by an overwhelming air freshener that definitely felt like it was covering something up, followed by well used outdated furniture, broken windows, holes punched through both bedroom doors and the bathroom door, and old rusty used appliances that looked like they were straight from a garage sale. It was at this point that we decided we could use a drink to ease the pain of our $700 per night purchase. We went over to the outdoor bar by the pool to be greeted by 8-10 other patrons sitting at the bar visibly upset by the lack of a bartender. After waiting 5ish minutes we decided to go into town instead and try our luck later. It wasn’t until that night did we discover how uncomfortable the beds were, that half of our light fixtures had no bulbs in them, the ac units had leaked condensation all over the carpet, and the closet in the one bedroom wasn’t a closet at all, but instead a dusty hot water tank covered by a thin wooden shutter. The whole experience was hilarious. If you’re a drunk college kid with your parents credit card you’ll feel right at home, but if you’re paying for this room with your own money prepare to be very disappointed.

There was not enough on site parking for paying guests, even though we paid for 3 full days but only were there for 2. Breakfast was advertised but once we check in we find out there is none on the weekends, when the daily rate is higher. There was no microwave in room & a hair dryer was not in a friends room. The pool area was locked until after 10am when the website stated it was open from 8am until 10pm. We booked this hotel as we had stayed here before & enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, however it has changed: music in the bar started once the pool was open & continued later than 10pm. This was a nice place but it has definitely changed. I will not be back.

Seems like no updates since 1996

The carpets are filthy, the air conditioning doesn't get very cold in the rooms, and the shower head is so old that it barely streamed out and took an extra 10 minutes to get clean. This was for over $400 a night. I get that it is a seasonal property, but this place desperately needs updated and cleaned.
