"This property is beautiful. The restaurant is amazing. It is an older property so if you have a double unit, or a unit above you it is quite loud. We had a screaming baby next to us, but Sam at the front desk did everything she could to help us. For the 2nd night we were moved to room 17 which is a single cabin and it was incredible. Hard to summarize because the first night was not great, but the 2nd night was unbeatable. Book room number/cabin 17 and you won’t be disappointed."
