Was a beautiful unit. Not sure why gutter replacement was scheduled for our last day there. We made it work. More of a family unit than a two couple unit. It works though. Plenty of room to have friends over for dinner and game night. The deck is large but not two decks like listed. Nice under unit garage parking for a car. All in all still a great place to stay and enjoy.

Was good and would.probably do it again. Had some issues with parking but got it figured out. Had my trailer with me and was informed by security where I needed to move it and I did so immediately. Next day another guy comes and says the property manager says you have to register the trailer,pay a 50 registration fee and then 50 per day to park in the front lot. ( PLENTY OF PARKING SPACES all over the lot). I rufused to pay them another dime. I hooked up my trailer and drove about a block or so to a city lot. Nice and only cost like 10 bucks a day.
