Teri was a great help at check in. It was a hot July stay and the a/c was sufficient, the pool was refreshing. Too hot to use the hot tub, but we will when we come back when there is cooler weather.

Very clean throughout the entire property. The staff was extremely helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was ok and area where it was served was very clean. Love the fact that no kids are allowed. The pool was great, even though the water was way too warm. It was 116 degrees when we were there, so of course the water was warm. We went in the pool at night and it was more comfortable than during the day. We had a very pleasant experience and will definitely return. Thanks to Mike and Linda!
