I would've given it a good 5 stars overall but it seems that they had a wedding event that allowed their guests to stay out in their patio fireplace area until 1am in the morning.

The only thing we did not like was the noise of people partying across our room. It interrupted our sleep a lot. It went on until 4:30 am. We finally had to go downstairs to complain. After that we could sleep though the morning ours.

We loved this place! We were a group of 8 people- 2 families. 5 adults two kids and one infant. The water park was small but so fun. No lines at all for the slides. The arcade was fun for the kids and we loved our room- the River Rock Suite. The first night we had dinner at the restaurant and had great service and the food was good. Service was great overall. We will definitely return!
