This is our 2nd stay and we had another wonderful night here. This is our base camp before we head to Reggae on the River. We will stay here every year going forward annually! The rooms are clean, beds are comfortable and staff very friendly!! We were even allowed to leave our third car for the long weekend in their parking lot, and for free! Thanks we love staying here!!

Place is really cute with a western theme. Checking in/out was a breeze. Room was clean & comfortable, could improve on detailed cleaning. Loved the toiletries, breakfast vouchers & big tv. So happy I'm Orbitz vip because I was upgraded to a king bed. Hope the cleaning crew gets the tips we leave. Overall we would stay here again.
