We loved all of the nautical touches and many references to Jimmy's songs. I liked the color in our room. The room was blissfully quiet for two people that had been out and about, playing in the water and now ready to relax. We hope to stay again; next time for more than 1 night.

Labor Day weekend getaway

The view was amazing of the lake. The activities they had for the kids over Labor Day weekend was super awesome. The only thing that I was not pleased with with the hotel, although they did make it right is that they only had one roll of toilet paper in the room and only Four large towels, which is not enough for a four day stay . I know a lot of hotels do the whole every three days they clean the room kind of thing, but I think a lot of hotels need to reevaluate that because the garbage garbage is were overflowing and ran out of space very quickly within two days. There was also not a microwave which I had to walk to the main area to microwave popcorn during select hours that it was open, which was kind of a disappointment. Customer service is very good. The food is very good. The ease of check in and out is easy all the free activities for the kids was amazing. it was nice to have full shampoo, conditioner, body wash, moisturizer, and lotion in the bathroom.
