The pool and hot tub were very clean. The whole property inside and out was very clean. Nice patio outside by the pool, but it was too cold out for us to use. Breakfast was basically a continental breakfast. The only hot item was pancakes, but that was okay with us. Our room was clean and spacious and perfect for us. It was the off season, so it was quiet although a few families stayed there while we were there. I highly recommend staying there. We definitely will again.

A great place to stay. They have a nice patio area with plenty of tables and chairs. Quiet area, a little dated but very clean and extremely comfortable beds and pillows. This was our third stay and look forward to next year’s visit.
