Capt. Thomson's Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was VERY friendly. They had the room stocked with the extra stuff we asked for. The coffee, cream and flavored water was ever plentiful. And no time limit for when you could get a fresh cup of coffee. The balcony was such an added plus! Unexpected. We were running late checking out and I couldn’t find the extra key… the ladies were very patient and allowed me to search for it! Found it! All around no complaints at all! Thank you. There were no loud voices, walking overhead or outside distracting noise. Extremely quiet! Allowed dogs too. No barking was heard. "
