"We had the best weekend away with our kids! Our boys loved exploring on their bikes, the parks great pedal cars, jumping pillow, playgrounds, spa, pool and slide. We loved how close it was to the beach and that our cabin was right near the parks kids facilities. The staff were incredibly nice and were even handing out free iceblocks to all the kids on sunny afternoons. It was like a kids heaven! The cabins were clean and comfy and had everything we needed. Definitely will be back!"
