Get Away

This was an impromptu get away with my sister. Property was clean and staff was welcoming. Beds and pillows were comfortable. View from our window was not good and the windows were pretty dirty. But, there were plenty of other places to get a clear view.

It’s a nice place, just a few small things that were aggravating. The refrigerator in the room makes loud noises which woke us up both nights, the bathroom sink water comes out so hard it sprays everywhere, one of the night stand lamps wasn’t plugged in and I could not find the outlet even after moving the mattress a little. Bright side it is clean, and has what we needed for our short weekend and this is the closest place to the marina.

The only thing we did not like was the bed. We thought we had a queen or king bed. It was a double bed only. Comfortable but we needed more room. Did not sleep well for fear of falling off the bed. The tv remote system and directions for use was a joke. Had to call for assistance and the 2nd room we reserved for my sister didn’t have correct remote in room to operate the tv.

This is our favorite place to stay when we travel to Kentucky due to the location. During this stay, weather was chilly and we were unable to get heat to work. Additionally, there were issues with the cable company that limited access to some of the TV stations that are usually available. Would recommend for anyone looking to get away to a quiet and beautiful place for a weekend or a vacation. Staff is always great and friendly.
