balanced stay

lovely staffcheerful receptionistpleasant bartendersuntidy houseslimited markingsvery warm bedroom
i found every staff member lovely. laura and caroline at reception were cheerful. brian and waylon in the bar were a pleasure to deal with throughout our stay. the hotel location allows for many walking trails through the woods.
I found limited markings for the mapped walks. houses around the hotel grounds were very untidy. the bedroom was very warm. This was not ideal.

Acceptable Stay, Some Issues

mini golftoilet leak
The playground and mini golf seemed to be a hit with children staying here.
The room smelled of toilet leak.. It also kept flushing itself all night. I slept badly and woke up with a headache after my night here.
