Double charged for parking. When I only stayed one night. Wasn't even on the property for 24 hrs. Called to get refund. They just gave me a case number. There isn't much there for the big kids. A couple slides that's it. Everything is extra money. Not worth the cost for staying there. There wasn't even a Jacuzzi for the adults in the waterpark

Our family has been here many times since open but notes that it is not as clean as it used to be and things have fallen. Location could be cleaner and needs to be upgraded. Rooms were good and clean though.

Stayed here before but this trip was terrible. Somehow they added multiple room & parking charges to my credit card (which was fully paid for before I arrived). Also, bought lunch for small children, stopped to buy an alcoholic drink, and their card reader wasn't working. After 30 mins. of waiting for them to get the card reader to work & asking a Supervisor numerous times just to give me the drink free so I could feed my kids, they charged me for the drink and all my food WAS NOW COLD!!!
