Great stay, enjoyed pool on the warmer days! Great location, kids could bike down the dead end road, new clean place! Not a lot of towels, no washcloths or hand towels, and very basic cooking utensils... Also didn't realize therr was a fee to clean grill, however not a big deal, except no grilling utensils. Nothing big enough to take any stars away, I understand it's a new place and it is really nice! Definitely would stay here again! ##### Ryan R.
