This property was clean, the staff (owner) was super friendly, and there was stuff to do for little kids. The room we stayed in was immaculately clean and we were also welcomed with little chocolates. We had everything we needed and it was very quiet.

The property was beautiful. There was a pickle ball court and basketball. The property was perfectly manicured with lots of beautiful vegetation. I'm a walker so walked the hills in the neighborhood daily. Lots of peace and serenity there. I would go back again. Sharon Wold

6/10 Good

Great scenery, quiet, well appointed room and amenities. Only problem the air conditioning wasn’t working.The property manager said it was overloaded because of the heat 37 deg.That wasn’t the case. The system was only blowing warm air. No sleep one night borrowed a fan for last 2. It’s half way through summer. The air conditioner didn’t just quit working. Too bad but I wouldn’t stay therein any above or below normal temperatures.
