It was wonderful staying at the property. Their amenities were excellent...only suggestion is to include drinking water in the cabins and increase the food options within the property. We had to go to main market down the street to get the food, however, overall it was wonderful staying there.

The property was nice and the cabin was a good size. I liked that it had a full sized oven. Shower was a bit temperamental though. One thing that was a let down was the lack of good customer service by the reception staff. It put a bit of a sour note on my stay.
pool area would be good for the summer months
Cute rabbits around the property
