The staff was great and accommodating but the actual property in itself was subpar. Our room smelled like gas/sewage and the bathroom had black mold all on the ceiling. The pool area was clean besides some broke lounge chairs. The beach entrance and beach was very clean. Overall the property is just ok. It’s not terrible and it’s not great. The breakfast in the AM is cool too. A very accommodating parking lot too for guests

Gorgeous, clean, spacious, comfortable two bed, two bath apartment with kitchen, laundry room and all. Absolutely loved it- homey, natural light, quiet. My friend and I were pleasantly surprised how much space we had: own full bathrooms, closets, cozy large beds. Bathtub was huge- very long. Cute lil patio w/table and chairs too. Only minor issue was parking wasn’t assigned/reserved so we had trouble finding close spot in evenings. Unit is a short drive to beach, restauants, shopping. Loved it. Will definitely stay again. Great place and space for families.

This was a perfect stay for our family. The room with the twin bunks and the king bed was wonderful and the location of the resort couldn’t have been better. It felt very private and secluded being by the state park, not overly crowded at all, and the beach was just steps away. We chose to venture out for dinner, so I can’t speak to the restaurants, but the Dragonfly was great for lunch and drinks. The pools were fun for a break from the beach and our kids (4 & 7) had the very best time. We will be back!
