A few weeks prior my mother took me and my kids to grizzly jacks resort. Our trip there was horrible so I was a little skeptical about going here. Our trip was great! The game room was a little pricey, but everything else was fairly priced. I only wish we would have had more time to stay. We are planning... More

The first night we spent there, my son woke up in the middle of the night and I noticed a small bug running across his bed. I knew right away they were BED BUGS! Right away I called the front desk and they moved us to a different room and we got a refund for that night.Thankfully, I must of... More

Still an ok price with AAA, but was hoping for better for a small standard room. When arriving line wasnt too bad we got there at... More

This was our second trip. First trip started out as a disaster as we were given a room that was not cleaned and had poop still in the toilet. Our wristbands did not work and got locked out numerous times. So we decided to do give it one more try and meet two other families there. Would rather pay and... More

My daughter (2 years old) and I both love the water, and we have a few weeks before our winter getaway, so I decided to look into a day at Key Lime Cove. They don't offer day passes (which is great for those staying at the property), but having read some older reviews regarding that icky pest that's been in... More

My boyfriend and I decided to get away for a night after a long work week (1/21/12). The place looks nice and was relaxing; however, it quickly turned into a bit of a nightmare. After returning from the water park we decided to take a dip in the Jacuzzi before heading out to dinner. The faucet on the Jacuzzi shot... More
