Made reservations on the way down and was advertised as having availability so we booked it. 11pm finally get there and the very rude front desk lady said that they're overbooked and offered no help getting a refund.

The feel of the place is inviting. I’m guessing the place was pretty popular/nice a few years back. Definitely in need of some modernization and cleaning. Overall, the stay was good. Kids enjoyed the indoor/outdoor pool. Again, I feel the place needs a thorough cleaning.

Needs updating

We found candy and toys under the beds. The room doesnt get very dark. Only wood slated blinds. The beds were well worn out. We sunk into it.

One of the best beds we have ever slept in at a hotel! Breakfast was very good and lots of options. Our room was clean and a lot of space. The small bar/restaurant was nice for times you dont want to go out.

Check in was strange. No one was at the desk. When two front desk employees did come, they had locked themselves out of the front desk area. One literally climbed over the desk. Then the two of them kinda of more talked to each other about a disgruntled guest than acknowledging me through check in. They also informed me that they overbooked, so my room was upgraded. My cottage was nice. It had a strange smell, but was nice overall.
