Picked this place on a whim for my kids and I and I couldn’t have been happier. This place was amazing and my kids are already begging to go back. The rooms are a hit older but very clean and the staff was so accommodating. The place has a playground, board games galore, s’mores (indoor if you don’t want an outside fire), bicycles, crafts, an indoor hot tub, pool, you name it. We cannot wait to go back this summer for some pool time. And the location was perfect. 🙌
