This is a clean, quiet, very well maintained property, with large rooms, and comfortable, high quality beds. The large shaded outdoor sitting area is a bonus. The staff is courteous and always available. It's good to know individual owners are saving these better quality motor courts, and that this travel experience is being saved for the future. I highly recommend this property.
