This property was amazing! Megan at the front desk was so incredibly helpful during our stay, staff and housekeeping were excellent. Rooms are great, the beds are so comfortable and the sheets are the most comfortable sheets we’ve ever slept in. We bought 2 sets to take home! The bar downstairs was great and the pool area and the grounds are beautiful. We will now make this our return hotel each time visiting my grandmother.
