Pros

Cons
Its old.
The girl who checked us in didn’t tell us anything about how to use the golf cart/shuttle bus shuttles. Come to think of it, she didn’t tell us anything about the resort and what it has to offer. Didn’t tell us where to park either. Here’s a traveler s tip, there’s underground parking garages under the Anchor building.
$10 per night for a microwave in your room. They charge a $20 resort fee, couldn’t you provide a microwave? Especially since the resort doesn’t provide breakfast??
Room has a smell…I don’t know if it’s a musty smell or old smell or maybe both.
Dead bugs and live spiders in the corners and along the walls, I mean come on, easily sweepable because it’s not carpet. Floor always felt like it was covered in sand.
Water leaks from the balcony above onto our balcony.
Nobody who works there seems to know where you can fish from.

The room air conditioner is occupancy controlled. I really think the air was turning off when we were sleeping and I kept walking up hot.

Impromptu Birthday Getaway
Pros:

My girlfriend and I visited on an impromptu getaway and it was amazing. The bed was very comfortable and the lake view every morning from my bed was amazing. The staff was welcoming and made sure we were cared for. Thanks Mike-who during check-in was so informative and Shawn at License to Chill- ran the place alone with excellence!
