Really satisfied with our stay. The room was great, the staff was super friendly, and it was a great price. Would definitely stay here on the next visit. Would like to check out their cabins and aqua lodges. Nice that they have a boat ramp and slips.

Great spot

Extremely clean and comfortable. The rooms are well maintained and the facilities were definitely awesome. Pickleball court and the pools was exceptional and I really love the fact that you get free kayak and bike rentals while you’re on your stay which was really great with the kids really enjoyed it.

Hidden gem!

Very clean motel! Rooms were big and the property had a pickleball court, pool, tiki hut by the docks and lots of chairs and umbrellas to relax in the shade by the lagoon. We could use kayaks for free.

Booked 3 rooms 2 beds in February. To arrive in June and told they didn’t have a 2 bed available. They booked it to someone else. Then charged me same price for 1 bed. Been going to the same hotel for 5 years and if this happens again I will not go back!
