surprising stay!

fun karaokeplaying areapool tableshabby entrance
The karaoke was fun. We had a chill night using it! the kids enjoyed the playing area. it features a pool table, billiards, and some toys. this made the place especially nice, and i was very pleased.
the entrance looked very shabby and untidy! the grounds needed care. it is such a shame it has been let go and run down, as it has beautiful views.
