It was beautiful walking down next to the little river that flowed by the resort. We sat at a picnic table. It was so relaxing. We enjoyed the trains going by and spent a few hours up at the Hot Springs. The room was perfect.

Upon arrival we were able to check in early and the staff were amazing. We stayed in the 2 bedroom bungalow that was well stocked and clean. We had family arrive with other young children to visit us and while they were playing on the playground the staff set up a bounce house and made everyone cotton candy. The stay here exceeded our expectations, they really went above and beyond.
