Loved the space.
Breakfast was delicious
Pool and hot tub were nice.
Fireside marshmallow making was yummy (but beware you have to pay $30 for 1 hour… that felt steep… likely wouldn’t do that again… took away 1 star for that and the fact I bought my own materials because they ran out. Seemed like it would’ve been free for that reason).
The shower was clogged but they fixed it right away. Driving distance to great food and the boardwalk.
Great place for business or for families.

This trip was a family trip during our 2 children’s spring break!!
The breakfast in the morning has great options for the entire family (cold and hot foods).
The pool and gym are close to each other.
The hotel has valet vehicle service, so we’d just left our van at hotel and enjoyed walking to the boardwalk twice, even our 12 year old daughter and 8 year old son, didn’t complain about the walk.
Great Staff and service!!
We’ll be back for sure!
