This property is in a great location for tubing and the water park. The property was very clean and check-in and out process was really easy. We also like the policy of free early check-in once the unit was ready.

Everything was amazing. The location was perfect. Walking distance to the river and has balcony view of the pool. Very clean and kept in contact with everybody through our trip. Very very helpful and accommodating.
This was the clearest condo I have ever stayed in. Everything was immaculate including the grounds, pools, and hot tubs. This condo is centrally located near everything and made getting around so easy. Thank you for a wonderful and stress free stay!

Reviewer Comments:
The location of this resort is very good. The garden is very nice and clean. the hot tub was "HOT" and nice looking.
The condo was exactly as pictured and described. The management company was very responsive after hours. Cleanliness was outstanding. The furnishings, kitchen ware, linens, etc were nice and there was a satisfactory quantity of each. Proximity to the pools and river are excellent. This is a really nice property for a small group.

We're excited to host you again in the future!
Great place to relax. Just my wife and I stayed for a few days. There were plenty of places to eat, shop, grab coffee, etc. Great location. Steps to the pool, and a few more to the river. I should have brought a fishing pole, but I will next time.
