So first, let me say the people we met in this resort were all wonderful and very inviting and I have no complaints. The purpose of this review is so those who travel as we do will not find themselves in the same situation. We travel in a 30’ 5th wheel and normally stay in RV Parks and campgrounds, although we have stayed in other resorts. This resort, mentioned to us as being close to those we were visiting also had all the added amenities but that was not a factor as we do not need or use... Read More

So first, let me say the people we met in this resort were all wonderful and very inviting and I have no complaints. The purpose of this review is so those who travel as we do will not find themselves in the same situation. We travel in a 30’ 5th wheel and normally stay in RV Parks and campgrounds, although we have stayed in other resorts. This resort, mentioned to us as being close to those we were visiting also had all the added amenities but that was not a factor as we do not need or use them. We stayed for 2 weeks in March and 2 weeks in April with the understanding, the electricity would be included in the cost. That was not the case In fact, the cost was $10 less than heating our 1560 sq. ft. home with someone living in it (snow). There is an endless amount of black dust on all the roads and walkways throughout the resort. My feet as well as my dog’s feet were black after every walk so we invested in an air purifier, wiped everything down every morning, put sheets over the furniture and washed them every couple of days. I have never seen anything like it. This is a cashless resort and everything is credit/debit card. Local companies provide Cable and Internet, it is your responsibility to set up however, the antenna worked fine, and they do have WIFI but like most, unstable. The laundry room uses a card. The card is loaded in $5 increments with the cost of the card deducted the first time it is loaded, there is no refund of any unused funds. It is required you wear a nametag when using any of the amenities. Provided when you arrive with your name and space # on it. Myself, I prefer to choose to whom I give that information. I also do not need an additional thing to remember…kind of like where you put your keys. There is a palm tree in front of every home. More than not, the residents wrap lights going up the trunk, around plants as well as lighted decorative yard ornaments. These lights stay on until late into the night, early morning. I found it very hard to get to sleep every night and then I continually woke up. All this made for a very disappointing vacation and living there is certainly a learning experience. We discussed leaving early, checked around but parks in this area fill up well in advance so that was not an option. We certainly will not stay there again and I hope this helps others when making a decision whether this is what they are looking for. Live & Learn.

Nice facility but not great. The steam room was full of mold, didn't dare go in. Restrooms had open ventilation. Tiki was ok but drinks were expensive and long wait time for drinks.

We stayed with Sunflower from the end of Oct to the first weeks of Nov. The RV spaces are tight and you are right next to your neighbor, but the crowd and over all facility are FANTASTIC!!! A ton to do and happy hour started at 2pm. We had a cocktail party with the RV crowd and made some great new friends, swam at the pool, played pool in the pool-hall, and joined in with the live music and entertainment that is there mon-fri. The people that live and work there are so nice, except the manager but... Read More

We had a blast there. If you can get over having a tight RV spot, paying a lot more than usual to not get cable TV, and just enjoy all that there is to do there- you'll love it!

Rather expensive for the two weeks we were there, but it is a nice facility and the people were very friendly. Did not take part in all the activities they had there as we didn't have time, but can say there is a lot to do there.

Beautiful facility with many amenities. We enjoyed our stay and used the fitness center most days. Staff was very helpful. One suggestion would be to improve the wifi. We were not able to use wifi at our site the entire week.

Despite the campground being almost entirely devoted to Park Models, there wee a number of sites for the big rigs. What makes this place stand head and shoulders above all others is the communal facilities. There was a different band 6 nights a week with GREAT dance music. Heaters and umbrellas all around with an outside bar and food service. The people and staff went out of their way to be friendly and have everything in top-notch condition. Obviously we were there in high season, but don't... Read More

Obviously we were there in high season, but don't miss this one. Lower appeal rating because of the Park models, but the central facility had more than enough good atmosphere.
