It was a nice vacation spot. There were a lot of pros but quite a few cons I will go over. The pros: The property was beautiful and big with lots of amenities. The activities were really cool and included lots for kids and adults alike, such as bingo, build a stuffed animal, paint a cup or ceramic. I love this it added such a fun way to stay on property and still have fun on the chill days. There was coffee from 7-11pm which was amazing and had all types of coffee and hot chocolate and drinks and while getting your coffee there is a little play center for kids in the upstairs. The property is Close by everything you need and right next to the outlets which is amazing. Nice indoor and outdoor pool and a SMALL game room.

Room was clean, pool clean, nice stay The bedroom tv did not have a remote so not able to watch in there. The living room remote did not work for the bedroom one, that was the only disappointing spot. It would be nice if they invested in smart tv’s so customers can log in to their streaming apps.

Very very nice property & staff was excellent. Accommodations were outstanding and the price was fantastic. The reason I did not receive my VIP property benefit was because I forgot to ask for it, which is on me and Not the property. I will definitely go back there again.
