Thank you for the review. We do not offer TV's in the room but, like you said, there are so many activities to do on property the TV would probably go unused.

Thank you for the review. We are glad you were able to get away for a bit and join us for some fun. Our soaking pool is open to the public, and we are family friendly. However, public children are only allowed in the pool until 6pm. We do not restrict hotel guest's children, they are allowed in 8am-11pm.
