10/10 Excellent
"This was a very nice hotel. They have a beautiful pool area with a lot of seating, not just sun bathing but also nice patio furniture to enjoy the very pretty gardens and flowers. I am not personally a big gambler, while I did play some slots, my sister and I were doing a fun girls get away. We took advantage of a full day at the pool and restaurants. Cute little cofffee shop too. Room was very clean and staff was excellent, helpful and friendly! Highly recommend! New Buffalo is a nice beach town as well!"

"This was the first property I had stayed in that had a bidet and a heated towel bin, and a massage chair. Let me start by saying everything was lovely and the “Superior suite” accommodations worked out for my husband, son and myself. However, the advertisement for the accommodations on Expedia is incorrect. It states that there are three beds including a king, full, and sofa bed. In reality, there was only a king with a twin daybed in the same room. There was no sofa bed, and in fact, no sofa. Instead of a sofa, they had a reclining loveseat that was missing a cord or broken. I like attention to detail, and they need to work on the landscaping as the grass had been mowed when it was allowed to get too tall, and there’s a lot of weeds and trees allowed to grow out of control. The neighboring yards looked much better. Some of the flowerbeds however were beautiful."
