Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim P. 18 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to stay We enjoyed this property but, just one issue that was quickly addressed. Our property was super clean however, we found some blood splatter on the bathroom door when we checked in. We let them know and they quickly sent over the housekeeping crew to clean. The rest of the place was spotless. They are very strict on parking. You have to park your golf carts and trailers in an open field on property. They have security at the gate and monitoring the property during the day. At night, there are cameras monitoring the over flow parking of the golf carts. It felt like a safe and well run place to stay. We would stay again. ##### Kim P.
