Beautiful scenery.shower room's and laundry room very clean and prices to wash and dry is awesome when on budget.One employee really stinks out.That would be management. She is very friendly and knows her job very well. The scenery and management alone is what would bring me back. Only problem i had was would have loved to see more flowers or plants or maybe benches near lake. Ohhh and i can't forget the geese and ducks. They make it peaceful also.So if your looking for a peaceful getaway. I really recommend.
