Needs updating and lighting - inside lighting was very dim and virtually no lighting outside. Felt like it was dirty but could have been more that it was so poorly lit that is just seemed dirty.

First thing we noticed was the staff of this beautiful place. They were awesome. Every person engaged us. They coddled the people that stayed here! Including my wife and I. Clean rooms. Very accommodating staff….from top down. And nature reigns here.
