This property has everything you need. We really enjoyed the pools & the convenient beach access. If you want to go to different restaurants off of the property, you will need to Lyft or rent a car. Loved the coffee shop & tiki bar on site!

10/10 Exceptional

This was a perfect stay for our family. The room with the twin bunks and the king bed was wonderful and the location of the resort couldn’t have been better. It felt very private and secluded being by the state park, not overly crowded at all, and the beach was just steps away. We chose to venture out for dinner, so I can’t speak to the restaurants, but the Dragonfly was great for lunch and drinks. The pools were fun for a break from the beach and our kids (4 & 7) had the very best time. We will be back!
