It was a nice enough place. The river view was nice. But it was pretty rainy so we didn't get to take advantage of it. It was good to have our own little cottage...and not having to hear sounds from other rooms. It was a bit out dated, and two of the outlets didn't work well. They did have free wifi that worked well, and a good selection of channels on the TV.

Very nice property. All the amenities are good. Especially the shuttle service was good. We missed the shuttle from the rail depot, since the resort name was not on the shuttle and the website didn’t say there was a shuttle from the rail depot. When we called from the station nobody picked up at the front desk. Otherwise everything was good. They dropped us at the tour site, museum etc at no extra charge
