We are both 70+ and had the stairs to climb. It was the only disappointment. We knew that was the case however next time we have to be downstairs. Loved the location and amenities.

Beautiful & very clean suite! They thought of everything we might need right down to umbrellas in case it rained! The community where it’s located had some of the nicest people you could meet & some nice little shops. We would definitely stay there again!

We have a dually truck that would probably not fit through the gate, so good thing we left it home. Also phone chargers on the night stands would be nice. Other than that I think our stay was great, although it would have been nice to have been accommodated the early check in at 2:pm as discussed. We came up for an event and had to wait until 4:pm to check in.
