Summary: This is a great place to bring a family for a get away. There are many things to do on the resort and the surrounding area. They also have a boat dock where you can bring your boat or rent one of their 14' aluminum boats or rent a larger boat from Brian's Marina up the road. I highly recommend this destination.
