"For this trip, we stayed in one of the lake-view cabins. They have a huge bedroom with a king bed, two lounging chairs, and a large screen TV. A separate living area with a full kitchen, dishes, silverware, wine, glasses, corkscrew, dishwasher, refrigerator with freezer, cooktop, two lounging chairs and a loveseat, a dining table and chairs for two and another large screen TV. Outside each of the Lakeview cabins is a little porch area with Adirondack chairs and a table, and your own parking area right at the door. This resort was planned extremely well. We have reservations again for next month, this time with our two dogs! We cannot wait!"

"Friendly staff. Before booking I searched for a room in the area and after comparing prices and what would meet my needs, I kept coming back to this room and I have no regrets. It was a pleasant stay. I requested extra towels and a staff delivered them to my room in less than 5 minutes. Coffee until noon and a small grab and go breakfast. A clean functional pool. If you are considering this place, just book it."
