We had a wonderful stay. The deck was fantastic and such a relaxing place to spend time. The overall atmosphere was peaceful and enjoyable. The interior, however, could benefit from some updates and refreshing, which would make the experience even better. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the opportunity to visit.
