The property is scenic, but the cabin was tiny and shabby and so overpriced. One redeeming thing was the abundance of activities and the wonderful dining experience.

Absolutely beautiful property with lovely gardens everywhere. The harbor staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were a bit outdated and the food was okay for the price. The pool is fantastic! My children had such a good time.

Our stay was wonderful. We had minor issues but were addressed quickly. Trash was left from last guest but once reported staff picked up within 15 minutes. We had reservation but were not seated on time, after it was brought to manger attention she was lovely and got us seated. The property is beautiful and tons of things to do for all ages. Lovely vacation!

Wish we'd had more time there to enjoy the lovely resort grounds and more of the facilities. Room was large and cabin-like in that there was a back deck and screen door out onto it (as well as a solid door, of course). It rained the day and night there, and we left the back door open to hear the lovely rain all night ~ The only surprise to us was having no tv in the room - fine with the many outdoor activities but on rainy days and nights we would've liked to have had one~
