Pros +
- Nothing
- The grounds, it was like being in a beautiful relaxing garden oasis. Great job caring for the landscape.
- We enjoyed the quietness of the area. Our creek-side room was calming, peaceful, and delightful. The creek was scenic, with wildlife scampering about.
Cons -
- Staff behavior while checking out
- The pool closes at 6 pm. It would be nice if the time was extended later. The pool was excellent.
- Overall, the staff was excellent. We did experience one, though, that was somewhat inattentive/grumpy.
