Could hear people walking for most of the night walking above us, not comfortable with adjoining doors, the beach was a disappointment with stones on the shoreline and a warning sign regarding poison ivy

The grounds are so beautiful! So relaxing! The hotel is older, but clean. The private beach is worth it! Avoid the crowds at the main GB beach

Breakfast was alright. Beach is what we enjoyed a lot and the atmosphere around the property with green grass and lots of trees. Fresh air! Food at Dave Pub and Grill was awesome. Our favorite place an hour away from home. It's a bit pricey though but we still love the place.
