Great stay! Super fun weekend with the ladies and visiting my daughter in Burlington. Lovely room and loved the huge (life-sized) gingerbread house in the lobby. Had a couple of meals in the Tavern - good food and very convenient.

Very clean. Stayed with two young children under 3. The pool was very nice. Beautiful outdoor spaces , plus playground across the street was a nice bonus. 24hr café , option to take out food from the resto and complementary s’mores kits, helped us make the most of our stay at this beautiful resort.

This resort was great! I was here on business, but chose this resort for the indoor pool lap swim. I wish I was able to stay longer to enjoy everything the resort offers! The customer service was excellent!

Our view was of mechanicals, kegs, smokers, barbecues, garbage barrels & dumpster.
It was a beautiful night but we had to close windows because of the noisy equipment. The A/C compressor in the room was very loud each time it shut off. The room itself needs updating especially the bathroom- rust around drain, dirty grout and ancient Moen shower valve. Very disappointed.

This place isn’t cheap, but (in the summer) there are many activities on site so we thought it was worth it. Nice pool, yard games, spa, etc. we enjoyed our stay very much. Also liked that we could check in earlier to use the outdoor pool.

We loved our stay. It was exactly what we were hoping for - relaxing and everyone was helpful. Although it was very busy we never felt crowded or taken for granted.

Stayed Labor Day weekend, Saturday night there was a wedding and myself and my boyfriend were woken up to drunken yelling woman in the hallway. Went on for about half an hour before I went outside to ask them to quiet down. Then the next night the room across from us decided to throw a party from 1130-230 until I called the front desk to complain. Quiet time hours were not enforced and for someone with insomnia, it was extremely upsetting when I paid decent money to SLEEP there.

We had a wonderful week. Staff and grounds are top tier.

Came for an overnight- would have loved to stay longer! Friendly staff, smores by the fire, goats out back, all night bakery case with pastries- AND beer/wine!
A lovely quiet location ( which was why I selected the location- staying the night before SAT testing) but offers good food, activities, 2 pools,Tennis, hot tub- and the peaceful relaxation also.

Don’t let the spa/resort label fool you. The place had a 1980s Holiday Inn vibe, with a musty barely functional AC unit. Fine if you’re passing through on the road. Not a place to hang around. We left a day early and cut our losses
