Such a cute resort and so great for a couples trip. Going paddle boarding, kayaking, or hitting balls at the range, there were so many options! The staff were extremely helpful and the food was good. One thing I truly loved were the fire pits and s'more's! I would recommend trying this place out!

I stayed in a cottage. It was perfect. Plenty of room and outdoor space. We had one issue with the shower not draining and when we notified the desk a maintenance guy was there within minutes to fix it. The property is located right next to a restaurant which had great food. I would absolutely stay here again if I came back to San Marcos.

Honestly, the best place to stay if you're in this area. The whole place is so packed with amenities and things to do, you don't even need to leave the compound. There is everything from water sports to regular country-club-like sports and feel. We had planned to maybe venture out prior to arriving, but when we got there, we realized we had everything we needed right there at our fingertips. Next time, I think we'd like to book a cottage with some friends.
