"We enjoyed the walk to the pier and two gazebos, but you could also swim in the pool or let kids play in the very nice play area."

"The pools are great for the kids (especially the bucket pool) and the lower pools are nice for my husband and I because it is very quiet down there."

“The pirate ship themed splash pad slated to open in 2024 should prove a hit with families, and direct access to a private beach offers convenience. Despite evident wear, outdoor amenities, including multiple pools and bonfires, create a lively atmosphere. If you are traveling with family and keeping an eye on the budget this could be a good option.”
