Our room was older and showed some wear, most concerning was an active and highly-populated wasp's nest in the soffit above the door to the room which was not attended to, despite reporting it - one staff member said no maintenance staff are on site - commenting that he thought that wasn't good, as there were also wasp nests identified by hand-written signs, \"Angry wasps\" . . . The other concern is that only 3 electrical outlets were accessible, and only the bottom receptacle worked in each of them. No GFI outlet in the bathroom, so the hair dryer had to be plugged in behind the TV, about 5.5 feet high. The freezer compartment of the fridge was not functioning properly, and water dripped down the back wall of the fridge that needed to be wiped out a few times, as it collected in the bottom of the fridge. There is only a cooktop and a microwave. There were only 2 folding lawn chairs on the patio, both in poor condition. The playground equipment is outdated - wood structures with the usual slivers and poor design that caused another family's child to whack her head off a 2x4 that knocked her off her feet and straight back onto her butt. The pool was pushed to the limit on the Saturday with birthday party groups, so the water was green and littered with leaves and insects, and a slime of greasy film on the pool edges by about 2:00 pm. Overall, it's just an older resort that is trying to do its best for families on a budget. Kids don't really notice these things, so all smiles.

I’ll start with the negative:
Check-in is at 4 and we didn’t get checked in until 5 because the room was still being cleaned. I normally wouldn’t mind too much but I had a wedding rehearsal at 4:30 and my outfit was packed in my suitcase- I had planned to check in at 4 and get ready. But I had to dig my stuff out awkwardly in my car and change and get ready in the common bathroom at the RV section. Not ideal…they were kind about it all but still a pain in the butt. My husband ended having to unpack it all with our two kiddos running around.
On our last day we were swimming in the pool and I slid in on the side instead of taking the stairs in and slid my foot over a sharp piece in the concrete and cut open my foot. I got out and it bled a bit so I just stayed out. Short but sweet dip in the pool.
The outlet in the bathroom didn’t work…pretty hard to get ready for a wedding when I couldn’t see my hair I was styling. If I didn’t need to do any of the wedding stuff-none of this would have been an issue!

The good:
All the employees there were so lovely and friendly. The mini golfing was so fun and the kids loved it! My youngest got 2 holes in one! My kids also loved the pool slides and ice cream.
The room was nice and clean. I found the beds very comfortable.
The location is great. Very close to town or a quick 2 minute drive to the beach.

Overall we loved it! Just. A few hiccups but I’m assuming won’t be an issue next time! We’ll be back

Our stay was Thurs-Sat. The property is a mix of permanent residence in rv's, vacation spots for rvs , apartment style cabins and 2 bedroom cabins for rent. We stayed in a 2 bedroom cabin #30 that opened to a grassy communal area. Cabin was clean and large and allows dogs. My only issue was that both side table lamps in the main bedroom didnt work. Both had broken switches. Told front desk so hopefully that gets fixed. I never caught the mans name at the front desk that was helping us but he was great and fun and we appreciated that. The pool and slide were fun and when the slide is on they have a lifeguard so thats an extra bonus for the familiea and safety. We enjoyed it alot and will def head back. I highly recommend. They also swrve pizza ice cream and have a full convenience store. Thanks for a great few days.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Wished I would have known that the rates were lower and this site charges a 50$ fee to support the eir business.
