Nice resort with lots of amenities
Pros:

Lots of amenities (pool, pickle ball court, restaurant on site). Short drive to the village. Great views.
Nice grounds to walk around.

Cons:

We stayed in the motel building. Our room was very dark and had a weird layout. Latge Towels were really small. Bed too soft. Noisily room (you can hear your neighbors, thin walls). Missing a mirror (only one small one above the sink).
The food at the restaurant was very average.
We had either great service or some worker gave us the attitude of being bothered.

The on-site restaurant was great. We also really enjoyed the recreation room. The room we stayed in was nice with a comfortable bed.

Next time a come back I'll bring all the kids and grandkids!
Pros:

It's even prettier than the pictures I found online at Booking.com and their website. Comfortable rooms, cabins, and cottages, (and lot so options to choose from), beautiful landscaping, and so many places to play! It's a beautiful and peaceful setting for adults and a virtual playground for the young and young at heart.

Overall I love the premesis
Pros:

I loved this facility, is clean, stuff is pleasant. The only thing that would be nice to enjoy is a jacuzzi which there is none available. I don’t like to give a bad review because of the behavior of people. I booked this place because I thought it would be very tranquil and quiet but unfortunately it was the opposite. There were drunk people outside my cabin till 1 or 2 AM. There were so loud I couldn’t sleep till 3am, I suppose to get up early for hike instead I sleep in and didn’t hike that morning. I understand it was Memorial Day weekend but I feel there should be a limit on times specifically on a place like this.

Cons:

Less noise, a cabin that is not attached to another cabin.
