Friendly staff…delicious bar food & they have liquor drinks!!!! Cornhole & awesome views. A great place to stop for gas & ice too. Easy access from the water & lots of boat parking too
I have closets bigger than their bathrooms and don't plan on eating inside either bc it's just as small. It's a pain to get to if you aren't on a boat. Food was decent. Service was mediocre but it's new so that could be why. I doubt we go to all the effort to get back to it.
Look, they're going through a transition. We rented a cabin and a camper space, which was very nice. The camper spots have 50 amp, water, and sewage at each site! The shower house was clean, as was the swimming pool. While I could nic pic things that need improvement. The overall experience was nice. The new owners have just taken over in the last couple of months, and you can see the immense improvements. The owners are committed to making this a great resort!
Typically have bands on the weekend. Cold beer and cocktails and very nice staff and the food is fantastic.
Great new owners, amazing staff. Great place to dock your boat and grab some good food . I have been coming here for 10 years and this place with new owners is on the rise!!!!
