Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms smelled bad. The outside is not clean. The breakfast is horrible. They do not have control over what Expedia is putting out there and not checking to see that they are overbooked for the same room. They expected 4 people to sleep in one bed. Nobody is being notified of this overbooking before hey get there- you just get to your vacation to a horrible surprise. We ended sleeping on the floor. They didn’t have enough pillows. They fixed my second night but unfortunately ruined our 1st stay. Could be a great place for the location they are in. They need new systems in place

Expedia booked the wrong type of room is what we were told when our rooms didn’t match the description of what we reserved and paid for. One room was completely wet and smelled like a crime scene. The other just smelled really bad. The breakfast was horrible. No eggs.

We would definitely come back again

We rented two rooms our family said they really enjoyed their room we also enjoyed our room we had a deluxe to bed room with the stove and refrigerator was very handy probably could use more silverware and bigger frying pan! We enjoyed the pool even though a lot of people complained it was too small there was probably 15 people in it and it wasn't bad at all.

We want to thank Chris & Renee, they were very helpful and kind. We are so thankful that they went beyond helping us! They made our day! They didn't know this but it was our 49th wedding anniversary on Friday so Saturday they gave a gift that we'll always be thankful for. May God bless them & their family abundantly! The room was clean & comfortable, pillows & carpet can use a little update though. ❤️🙏

Good value for the price. Comfortable beds. Only downside was the room smelled faintly of cigarettes. The room did have smoke free signage, so may have been a bad guest.
