Beautifully updated and very clean room. Great balcony to enjoy the water view. Very fun spot for families or couples. Fire pits and beach. Various fun options to stay…rooms, cabins or RV hookups. Staff was great and prompt although she was there alone and trying to do a lot of tasks at one time but she was doing it very well!
