Really surprised this property is on Expedia. I thought it was a mistake when I pulled up. It looks abandoned from the outside. Junk left outside, weeds growing in landscape beds, etc. I couldn't cancel because I had made the reservation that day, but there was no way I was going to stay, especially for the listed price. Not even close to worth $125. The lady working there was very nice and seemed genuinely embarrassed when I told her I wouldn't be staying. She wasn't part of the ownership, so I won't criticize her. She was just trying to do her job.

Fantastic spot to stay
I loved my stay in a 1954 Boles Alero trailer. It was so cute and comfortable. The RV park was clean, pretty and very safe and quiet. Great staff too!
I stayed in the middle one
Very serene area

Is it1960?
Never again, I can’t even believe they can list this as a spa and retreat. Maybe if it was 1960. So old and unprofessional. We got there around 5pm and the gal said who did you book with. I said Hotel.com and she said oh we don’t have a room ready. So she said give me 30 minutes and then she is running around like crazy trying to clean a room. An older man came over and said we didn’t realize it was a holiday weekend so we don’t have any rooms clean. What!! She finally got it cleaned and then the tv doesn’t work so she goes and gets another tv and it finally works. So NOISY!! At 7 in the morning a ton of kids are running around screaming and jumping in the pool. At 7 AM!! The place is so dirty and run down. There is a 1in gap under the door and dirt and dust just blows in. Would NEVER stay here again. A room with laundry has the door open and laundry all over the ground and the office is unorganized and dirty also.
