Donald who was my first point of contact was NOT welcoming at all, his customer service is the worse. Arrived Monday didn’t receive WiFi until Saturday this was after spending a total of at least 3 hours on the phone with Cox over 3-days. The Donald refused to contact them. The room was awful the bed was worn and sunken in the door let’s everyone know your status in the room the curtains do not close this place is sooo outdated and worn a 1’ crack under the door for all types of crawly creatures this place is the worse along with its customer service

Cute, cozy hotel!
Customer service was great! The room appeared clean upon entering however, there was an empty water bottle under the seat in the room by the bathroom, and the comforter had dried blood on it that we didn’t notice until we were stripping the bed to leave. My husband and I both checked everywhere and the blood was not from either of us. The bed was very comfortable, the grounds of the hotel were kept clean, and it was a cozy cute place! Overall, good stay! Just found things that could have been better!

Always a good stay
We have stayed here many times. Its a good location for our needs. Its clean. The pool area is nice however, the sectional sofa is disgustingly dirty. We layed towels over it just to sit on it. The restaurant is good. We really enjoy having our meals on the outdoor patio overlooking the golf course. The entire staff at the resort are very friendly. The bedding is comfortable but the rooms are very outdated. The walls are dark and the furniture clean but worn. There is no convenient bedside place to plug your phone in. The in room refrigerator is great to have.
