We like that it is on the river and in the park. Last time we stayed it has July 2024 and hot. We enjoyed it more when we could swim in the river and walk around the park at night. This visit was late October and cold. In the winter months a nice widow view would be better than a deck. It was wonderful staying in warm weather. Great staff as always! ##### Mardi Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Becky 18 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was nice and relaxing ##### Becky Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Betty 20 Oct 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities A place to sleep,not up to date no plug ends in rooms nothing near the beds.
