Nicole, Feb 2020
Pros (+) Location was absolutely gorgeous along with facilities. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful.
Cons (-) The food could be better, it’s not bad, just not a lot of variety. Could use a little more introduction to the property of how it all works and where everything was located.
