"We stayed two nights at the property and everything was great! The entire property was clean and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We especially enjoyed the waterfront views and access, and the outdoor pool. The bonfire with s'mores and fireworks was also a nice touch. Can't wait to book again!"
