Very well, kept clean property enjoyed my stay
Pros:

The property was well-maintained, clean the fit and finish on Everything was nice. Nothing was sloppy, even the pool and hot tub area was nice, towels were available. Tables and chairs were neat.

Cons:

The only real issue I had with the property was the amount of fabric softener that they used on the sheets and comforters. You could actually feel it on your skin and smell it after you were out of the bed other than that I had no issues.

It was a place to Kay our heads.
Pros:

Good location, easy access once you found it (off the main road).

Cons:

Our heating unit fan sounded like a jet plane when it cycled on - we left the fan running and that solved that issue. We reported it.
