It truly is an amazing resort. I agree that the resort is even better in real life. It also didn’t take long for us to realize why so many positive things have been said about Don. He clearly loves what he is doing. He is the kind of guy that you just want to sit down and have a drink with. He has thought of so many extra things that made our stay even better than our already high expectations. We all had an amazing week. It truly was a wonderful experience. Everyone in our group is looking forward to returning next summer. ##### Kevin A.
