The cove down below was a wonderful place to float on floaties, kayak, etc. The water is only 4-5 feet deep, which was perfect! They had a nice blackstone and grill we utilized. The kitchen had pretty much anything we needed. Several games were available. The only thing that could've been better was the water pressure in the shower. Everything else was perfect and we had a very relaxing and fun time. I would stay there again.
