The hot tub in room was disgusting! I turned on the Jets to have them barely spit out water and when they did it was chunks of brown mold and algae. I had to clean and sanitize my own whirlpool tub in order to be able to enjoy it clean and sanitize at 12:30am! Also the cottage house was not available due to hot water issues. They did say they have been on top of the issue with the company out to fix it 3 times and still not resolved. I reported my issue and a manager was supposed to contact me and no management has contacted me. I would think this would be priority

The room itself was mostly fine except it wasn’t the room I paid for. Upon arrival the front desk personnel told me the cottage suite I booked wasn’t available then put me into a different room. Told me I would be reimbursed for the downgrade difference, then the hotel didn’t follow through with the refund so I paid for a suite and received a standard room.

Room was clean but smoke alarm was hanging from the ceiling so check your rooms for maintenance. Staff was very friendly and helpful at desk. Housekeeping did knock and try to enter our room before I could answer the door at 10am, an hour before checkout, so educate them to let us answer. It takes 15 seconds, not 3. A do not disturb sign would have helped. Otherwise it's a nice place.

Room was very nice, clean and quiet. We were not able to stay in the cottages where we were originally booked because they had no hot water there, so we were moved to the main building.
