The place was nice. Beds weren't that comfortable. I hate the streaming service. Couldn't find anything to watch that didn't need a code or payment. Couldn't get any major networks. Best thing was location near the state park. Was disappointed that "private beach access" meant a 5 minute drive to a mediocre beach. The beaches at the park were really nice.
