We enjoyed our stay in the property. Rooms were very clean and the front desk folks were nice and professional. However, our room was not ready when we got there. We had to wait for an hour. Not a biggie during this particular stay because we weren't really tired and we were able to use the game room but I thought I'd mention that. I wish there were kiddie shirts available for sale at the office. :-)

I liked that the room was clean however other than that I can’t think of anything else I liked. I guess I can add that the property is well kept. Our room was pretty disappointing, heater/ac was a mess despite calling for help on resetting the temp we were left pretty cold at night. The tv never turned on, and the queen bed is more like a full.

Disappointed with condition of our cabin and service from front desk staff. Kitchen in our cabin was missing several necessary items, living room tv did not work, feather bed pillows were very uncomfortable, no extra blankets were supplied, electrical outlet cover was missing and a few other issues. I reached out to front desk shortly after check in, but their response was dismissive and curt so I did not contact them again during our stay.

No toilet paper whatsoever in the room. Called several times and no answer. Had to visit the office next morning to pick it up. Also explained that the room was covered in dog or cat hair. My son sneezed way too much as a result. I explained both of these issues to the front desk as I was leaving and she couldn't have cared one bit. Beautiful setting but really lacking in customer service and attention to detail.
