We love that it was pet friendly. We also love this home as it was nice and clean and very private. Everything was comfortable and it was like being at home away from home. The roads were a little narrow and steep for us, but after a few tries, we were OK with it.

Cabin has a horrible musty feel which remains on clothes. Very dirty area rugs and soiled living room furniture. Almost 30 minutes from entrance gate to cabin in treacherous roads.

The overall property was amazing- so quiet and peaceful. We saw countless deer and were able to enjoy a stunning view of the sunset every evening. The villas are dated. Which is fine and do-able…however, the pungent mildew smell was more than I could bear. It is not only the smell but the toxins from either the mold or fungi that it’s coming from; my body began swelling, could not stop sneezing, eyes watering, etc. Would love to come back but please do something about this. It is simply hazardous for your guests to constantly breathe in these toxins.

Everything was perfect. Only complaints are no WiFi & half the electrical outlets need to be replaced in unit. Cords won’t stay plugged in. We made it work. Unit was very clean and comfortable. Will definitely be back for a third trip.

Overall, a very nice place to stay.

We stayed at the "Villa" on the river. Overall, our place was really nice. It was clean and had everything we needed. My only complaints were that the sheets were polyester. I can't sleep or wear polyester because it actually burns my skin. I had to go out and buy a cotton blanket to sleep in and put a t-shirt around a pillow. The little single bed is really hard but the main queen bed is nice. There is also a little trundle mattress under the single bed. I am not sure that there is room to pull it out all of the way, but it would be convenient if you need it. I also think that they ought to have salt and pepper in the cabins. We left a little laundry detergent and ketchup packages in the drawers for the next person should they need it. I don't know if it will be allowed to stay.

When we arrived and tried to check in, we were told I had already checked in, signed papers and gotten the key. Clearly I had not. The security guard was nice but seemed very uncomfortable- she handed me the phone and told me her supervisor wanted to speak with me. The supervisor told me someone must’ve stolen my identity, checked in and took my villa. I explained that I’d had a very bad trip up and really needed to relax and check in. She got very rude and told me it wasn’t anything to do with her and wasn’t her fault. Basically she was a jerk and I’m highly irritated.

Liked the area. Overall clean but property has a musty, moldy odor that wouldn't go away. Had to purchase lysol and had to constantly spray to try to clear the smell. Clothes and belongings retained the musty odor even after returning home. Need to have a clearer description and directions that explain recreation center and pools are miles away and hard to find. Water pressure is extremely low and made taking a shower difficult.

The amenities were great, and the property was beautiful, but I would recommend renting from private owners within the property due to some problems I had with the resort renters. The resort changed our listing and after we paid a higher price to get a river view room, we were given a Mountain View. When we asked the resort to help us straighten things out they refused to make it right.
