    Disliked: Amenities
    While we had high hopes for this resort, our experience was underwhelming. It didn't feel like a suitable environment for young children, as we frequently encountered intoxicated guests using inappropriate language. We were also surprised by the lack of value; the lounge is small, and there are additional charges for everything—including ice, water, and arcade games. ​The cleanliness and upkeep were also disappointing. Despite the resort fee, there was no daily housekeeping, and since it’s a pet-friendly property, we even found dark dog hair on our bedsheets. Additionally, the on-site restaurant is overpriced for the quality of food provided. Overall, the limited services and lack of maintenance made it hard to justify the cost.

    This was a large room with jacuzzi in the room and a patio overlooking the lake. We loved it! Only criticism would be the ceiling fan needed a good cleaning. The outdoor pool and hot tub were very fun. The kids tolerated the pool better than I thought but eventually found themselves too cold and joined in the hot tub. Possibly a warmer pool if they could. Would definitely stay again. Beds were comfortable and ambiance was great!!
