Cutting through the noise
A picturesque escape! Friendly staff and gorgeous views made my stay delightful. The outdoor pool and hot tub were refreshing after a day of adventure, but I wish the Wi-Fi was more reliable. Despite some noise from neighboring activity, the plethora of family-friendly activities offered kept us pleasantly engaged. Can't wait to return!

The outdoor pool and hot tub offered a refreshing escape, perfect after a day of exploring. The amenities for families, including mini-golf and pancake breakfasts, were enjoyable additions. On the downside, the laundry facility lacked sufficient machines, leading to long wait times, and the limited Wi-Fi made planning difficult. However, the friendly staff enhanced our experience.

Great for families!
We just spent 4 nights here in a King Room with Balcony. Super fun for families with kids—there's a small pool, splash area, and even a hot tub! The restaurant was solid for breakfast and the staff were super friendly. Just wish the big pool was warmer. Overall, a solid spot for a family getaway!

Great Family Activities in a Beautiful Location
We had a wonderful three-night stay with our kids! The outdoor pool was a much-needed treat after a day of adventures. Enjoyed the campfire evenings with s'mores. To avoid crowds, head to the pool early. Great base for exploring nearby attractions! Don't miss the delicious chuckwagon dinner experience.
