Not a bad stay, I'd definitely come back.
Pros:

Pretty decent location. Hiking trails, disc golfing course and even plenty of shopping experiences were within a reasonable driving distance. The kiddy pool was AMAZING. Probably our favorite part of the whole hotel. It let our 2 year old really be able to enjoy the water as much as everyone else!!

Cons:

VERY disappointed that there wasn't a free breakfast included in the price of the stay!!

Also, I was a little disappointed with the cleanliness of the room. While undoing the beds before checkout i noticed a bottle of barqs root beer that had definitely been hidden underneath the headboard/behind the mattress and had been there for quite some time. While my 9 year old played with my 2 yearold she also noticed several things that made her a little grossed out as well. It's like the cleaning staff paid attention to the big things and none of the small details.

Weekend stay
Pros:

It was a very nice property & I wouldn’t hesitate to book there again. Only small issue was the Saturday we were checking out there was no breakfast offered but they did have a coffee pot there guests to get coffee & also in the room which was greatly appreciated. I think there was staffing shortage that day which is tough but understandable.

Pros:

This was one of the nicest hotels I've stayed at in recent memory. Clean, quiet, updated. I wish I was able to stay longer and not just there to catch a flight the next morning. Free airport shuttle!
