Best Things About the Resort:
The resort was very accommodating when a change of plans made an upgrade to a larger unit a very good idea. (One of the few resorts which can accommodate such a request.) The staff was very friendly, and gave us things like extra dishwasher soap without question or charge. Other resorts do that, but somehow the staff at Oak & Spruce was just so very nice about everything.
Resort Experience:
The units are not large, but adequate, and nicely funished, but there were signs that some renovation was needed -- marks on the walls where the dining room chairs hit them, etc. However, the resort was undergoing construction while we were there (May 2000), and refurbishment may have been planned. The indoor pool was badly in need of repainting, and the whole pool area needed "sprucing" up (despite the resort's name). I've been to other resorts under construction, but in other cases, the construction didn't seem to interfere as much with the resort's amenities and programs.
