Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Although the property was a little dated, (it reminded me of an "old" Florida motel, which I found delightful) the room was clean with a wonderful soaking tub and very clean pools. The manager was attentive and personable. The place and location was quiet and restful. All in all, a very nice stay.

Everything was lovely. Should probably warn people about the size of the parking lot. Thankfully we bought my car. Had we brought my husband’s truck, or anything bigger than a compact car. We would not have fit in the parking spaces.

Sweet spot really close to Golden Haven spa. Walk back and forth to your treatment and you can use all of the pools at both places! The handmade essential oils for the jacuzzi are lovely and all staff were great. Dog friendly a huge plus, even though we didn't bring ours. We will be back!!

Great place to stay with jetted tub with mineral water in your cottage, ready to use anytime you want. Relaxing property in a few minutes of walking to the main street, still quiet giving feeling of being in rural area.
