Most things about our stay were lovely! The property is beautiful and the rooms were clean. There were only two issues - one was how hard the bed was. I know that everyone has their preferences but this bed was practically rock hard to me. On the other end of the spectrum, my husband liked the firmness. You know what you prefer, so take this information and use it how you will. The second was a slightly rude encounter with the security guard. My husband was trying to get the TV to come on and it would not. He called down to the "front desk." Now...granted we checked in late and this turned out to be the security guard. When my husband told him we were having issues getting the TV on, he was immediately irritable with him stating that he needed to be louder because he was outside (it wasn't what he said, but HOW. Also, my husband said he didnt know that...he had just called "front desk). He offered no solutions or attempts to help at all. Basically said there was nothing he could do. We did end up figuring it out ourselves.

When I pulled up to this area, I was surprised it is a religious retreat area. I am fairly religious so no worries there -- I enjoyed the chimes on the hour and half hour and periodic hymns played by the bells -- but I did wonder if I went to the right place. But wowza! The front desk was terrific and, when I had an issue with the room in the middle of the night, I received swift and wonderful assistance. Great people, BEAUTIFUL campus to walk, and peaceful so one can relax and then hit the crowds of the beaches and shopping area for a nice balance. I will be going back!

Liked: Cleanliness

Basic but adequate

For the price, this was a decent place. Beautiful grounds. Check-in given keys & map to the Turner Lodge. Should have been told about pool, church & service, dining facility, vending location, museum, any other amenities. No coffee in room, fridge was tiny w/ no freezer at all, mattress reasonably comfortable, very small TV. Worst thing was lack of insulation in building. We heard toilets flushing & sliding glass doors opening. Beautiful view from balcony & peaceful grounds. Convenient drive to town. Friendly staff, but they need to be trained to inform guests of what's available or give out a leaflet with info.

I always enjoy fishing off the dock. It’s the main reason I stay there. It’s nice not having a large group of people around when I’m trying to fish. Of course the rooms are always nice and feel inviting. Staff has always been nice and helpful.
