8/10 Good
"This was our second stay here. It is great for a large group with teenage children. It is clean and well appointed, however, the deck had raised nails and one of our guests received a severe cut on his foot. Fortunately, we had two nurses staying with us, one was an ER nurse, so they cleaned and bandaged his foot. We reached out to the company, but they never got back with us. We encourage everyone to be cautious on the deck. It is a hazard and put a damper on our vacation."
