We had visited once before, many years ago and really enjoyed the location so decided to book here again as we were looking for a close-ish getaway for a change of scenery during covid.
Check-in/out was quick and easy and the room was clean. We got a regular King room because that's all that was left, but would've loved to get a river view room here as we saw many people out enjoying their patios every night, especially when everything closes up pretty early in town because of the pandemic. The shower pressure is strong, but there is no fan in the bathroom which is a pet peeve for me when hotels don't have one.
Instead of a breakfast buffet, you got a ticket for a brown bag breakfast which had a variety of things or $5 off per person at the sit down restaurant. We did the restaurant one day, but weren't super impressed as the breakfast options were really limited. We also ate at the restaurant for dinner and liked that much better - it's really beautiful at night with all the string lights and a larger menu. I wouldn't bother wasting your money on a cocktail here though... it was pretty pricey and if I didn't know any better, I would think the watermelon mojito I got was just straight watermelon juice.. I couldn't even taste any muddled mint, let alone alcohol.
As far as other things around the property - the walking path is great. Depending on your activity level, the walk into town is about 1 mile. There's also a small beach area that rents sea-doos, paddle boards, etc right next to the pool. Most guests were good about wearing masks around the property and in the halls. The gym/pool area is the only thing I would be weary of, personally. They were pretty close to capacity in the area both days we sat out there - lots and lots of kids running around, back and forth from the pool to the hot tub, etc and on one night when we headed back to our room there had to have been 10-15 people sandwiched into the hot tub, def not all from the same family. There were signs to wipe off pool chairs after you leave, but we saw few people do this - they do have an employee that comes by every so often and tries to mass wipe stuff down that's not being use, but by that time a lot of times someone had already left and someone else had plopped down in their chair. So I was never comfortable enough to use the pool or hot tub, but seems like a lot of people were. Covid concerns also made the gym, sauna area hard to be able to use. Again, personal preference though. Overall, would definitely stay again. less
