We send an email that we would be arriving late from Virginia. We came down to fish. The wind was rolling with 35 mph gusts. Still, we fished. It wasn't the Ritz, but it was cozy. We will definity check here for rooms first.

Property was run down,nothing worked, a/c was rattling making awful racket. The ice machine was broke so I had to go buy some. Could not save any because the refrigerator and freezer in the room did not work. Can’t forget about all the bugs in the room. Needles to say we stayed one night although we paid for three! Worst hotel we have ever been at!
