Liked: Cleanliness
Overall good. Hours of restaurant isn’t ideal. Enhance stay with a breakfast option would be a great bonus for this place. Also, it’s a boating community and they surely don’t seem to be embracing this for their guests with boats. They actually were fairly rude about it and we have a nice boat so it was frustrating to want to stay again for those reasons.

Extra Effort

This property has been renovated & has a modern, clean & luxurious feel. We were only there for a few brief hours to shower & sleep so felt like we probably missed out, but the location is excellent. BUT HUGE SHOUTOUT to the staff. I left my Ipad and the housekeeper turned it in. The front desk staff called me and helped me get it sorted out. They were so nice and helpful and it just says a lot to me about their integrity!!!

Good Hotel

Overall great stay, better than last year in some aspects others not so much. Improvement this year: The pool was clean & usable as well as being stocked with towels and floats. Not so great: one of our bed mattresses had a horrible dip and the restaurant is not open daily. We would stay again, the hotel is clean and staff courteous. Location is perfect.

The property should do a better job of information. No where on the website does it list check in and check out times. My biggest issue was the front desk. I checked in early and was assessed a $50 fee. I was told here are my keys. I was not told about parking. I was told the elevator was broken, I was not told where to find stairs or how to get to my room, not a great first impression. The rooms are well appointed and cozy on a rainy day. The website lists a gym on site.
