Amazing Room
Our room was everything we wanted. It had a Jacuzzi in it. It had a king size bed lots of mirrors an a fireplace ! It was absolutely beautiful! It was my husband and I anniversary and we wanted a very romantic room and that is exactly what we got. The service was amazing. They had wonderful food in the café downstairs. The pool indoors is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. We will definitely be taking more trips here and will be staying again!!

The pictures were rather misleading. Didn’t look much like pictures. We were put in a room on the other side of the road that clearly used to be another business. Didn't see a creek anywhere like shown in pictures. Balcony was just the upstairs walkway to the room that overlooked the parking lot. TV was very blurry and had about 50 channels that went out during a storm.
