"The staff. The number one reason we choose to stay there every year is for the staff. Every time there are different people but they are ALWAYS the best staff. Front desk girls were amazing. Jackie and the girl who worked today 2/1/2026 wearing the cute fur coat. They both should get big shout outs. THEIR HOSPITALITY WAS SOOOOO OVER THE TOP!! I will tell you we had very cold showers. The water did not get more than luke warm"
