Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The cabin that was given to us initially was extremely difficult to locate and had 123 steps down a very steep area in order to reach the cabin we had a traveler with us who had an ankle boot recently placed and she was unable to walk down the steps safely. I asked for another cabin and was given one with less steps but the staff didn’t seem very concerned and I would not stay in those cabins again due to safety concerns related to the steps and the difficulty getting bags into and out of the cabin.
The cabin i book was so gross i bought a vacuum and filled the bucket up 3 times on half the cabin. So mant spider webs on furniture. A dead mouse in a rat trap under the fridge stinkin the entire cabin up on day 2. Not to mention about 30 steps for 1 single mom and 5 children. (1 being 16 months, 3 yrs, 4 yrs, 9yrs and 11yrs) i complained multiple times the first 2 days nobody came to fix the issues and i was told i could not switch to a cabin with less stairs because older people request thos cabins. Totally dismissed the nasty conditions. BTW i booked 3 separate weeks in this cabin over $4800 spent. Everything else here is perfect though.
This is one of the best properties I have ever stayed at. We stayed at the lodge. It has been completely updated, but the rooms are still very small. The room was functional though. There was a refrigerator, but no microwave. There was a microwave to use down the hall. There are no bad views from the lodge as far as I could tell. We woke every morning to a view of the horses grazing in the pasture. There is a restaurant and a bar downstairs, a game room, indoor and outdoor pools, firepit, marina, Store with food to order, sundries, wine and beer, Putt Putt, etc., etc., etc..
The good: My sister and her husband have stayed at the Lodge every summer for years, and talked me into bringing my kids to join them. We stayed for two weeknights in mid July. Rooms seemed clean and recently updated, but oddly no chairs. In general, the staff was friendly and helpful...until there was a problem. Golf carts were fun. We stopped to see a huge bear crossing the road and field while driving to a restaurant off of the resort.
The bad: 100 degree weather during our stay. Indoor pool, splash zone, and mini golf were all closed for the entire stay. Pool at Lodge had no shade other than table umbrellas. Family pool was very warm...gross. Restaurant at the Lodge looked permanently closed, but was open. The bar, void of any liquor bottles, as well as the yellow caution tape near the entrance, helped this feel. Food at the Grill was low grade, tasteless, and soggy. Nearest shopping and meh restaurants are 20 minutes away.
The ugly: My car was damaged by a spike protruding from a concrete parking space barrier as I pulled out of my spot. I reported the incident and was told I'd receive a call. This was 2 weeks ago, and I have yet to hear from anyone. I stayed past my checkout, and have called and left messages trying to talk with an authority. This is how guests are treated when there's a problem. Pathetic. What's really sad is that I'm now going to be fixing it myself for only $50. Nice work Blue Green.
The resort is set up very nice, the pools are relaxing and well maintained. The rooms are rather small not much extra space. Bathroom needed better cleaning a lot of hair behind the door and toliet. Game room was nice just needs a few newer games. We weren't told the restaurant wasn't open for breakfast during the week only on weekends. Also wasn't told about the 200.00 per room hold on your card and we booked 2 rooms so wasn't happy about that. The facility is nice and well maintained otherwise. Not much to do outside the resort or in the area.

We had a lovely time during our stay. We booked for a wedding nearby and only spent 2 nights but we want to bring our family and come back for a week! The staff was so friendly and helpful no matter who you spoke to. There is plenty of fun things to do on the property and we can't wait to return and explore it all!
We enjoyed our stay. Wendy was very friendly and helpful upon check in. She was attentive in hekping switch rooms due to noisey neighbors as well. Everything was clean. Beds were a little hard and sheets were scratchy. Vending machines were empty, but they kept a large container of ice water at the front lobby to refill our water bottles.
Adorable little cabin in the wilderness. Could have had a cleaner bathroom (the tub wouldn't drain due to excessive hair we had to clean out and hair on the counters and shower walls.
We enjoyed our stay, it was a very nice property. My only complaint would be that the room was much smaller than we expected, and there was no where to sit except on the bed.
Very friendly staff and beautiful setting. Small room was workable. Only accessible outlet to charge phone or iron was in the bathroom. Paper thin walls and ceiling allowed for everything to be heard. And I mean everything.
