This was a very comfortable place to stay and relax a little and have some fun.

Go tubing down the river -- a little scary at first, but relaxing, exciting, and FUN! Go from the resort because they take care of everything for you.

Quick Tips:

The mountain to get up to the resort and to the rooms is a LONG one. Make sure you get what you want and need in town before heading in for the night! The stores at the resort do have a lot of stuff and are reasonabley priced.

Best Way To Get Around:

Can't do anything without a car. Mountains are not even for biking.
Best Things Nearby:
Not too much nearby. Needed a car to get anywhere. Even at the resort, it was too hilly to ride bikes or walk.

Best Things About the Resort:
The room was really nice. Two balconies, one-bedroom with a queen-size bed, one with two singles. Big living room.

Resort Experience:
Two bathrooms, one in the master bedroom, the other with a jacuzzi and a shower that had two shower heads. Couldn't get the kids out of it! Fully stocked kitchen, coffee maker, blender, even detergent for clothes washer and dishwasher! Balconies were very nice. VCR in living room.

Food was excellent. Bar atmosphere. TVs keep the kids amused. Fast and friendly service. Burgers were soooo fresh. Wings for appetizers were great and salads good too.
