8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
Not enough bathroom towels for the people staying. Ice maker wasn’t really working so we had to buy ice bags. No laundry detergent. The hot tub chemicals are out of balance, water felt slimy and felt like sand on the bottom. The water level reduced significantly during our visit and we had to put more water in and there was an error on the screen. We enjoyed our visit otherwise.
