Sell this place to some one who cares about us! Let’s talk about it.$15 for a pool full of bugs. $18 for two shots that aren’t even filled properly. Prices for me are no problem but then give the presentation. Garbage all over the walkway behind the pool. Girl was playing music over her phone. They couldn’t decide what us gay people wanted to listen to so they went from club to classic rock 😒 what has happened to this place. There use to be a bartender named Anna who use to work there. She made great drinks and had an infectious personality. Every one looks like they hate their job. I miss the clean rainbow mountain. Side note: there is a distributor a few minutes down the block with a full service bar. $7 shots of top shelf liquor and a great store owner. Pre game there show them some love.

All I can say is what a disappointment. It is in desperate need of a complete renovation. The rooms are filthy and need a good cleaning. There is no daily maid service . We were there for 2 nights and no one ever came in the room to make the bed or change the towels. There was a television in the room but no antenna, no wi-fi so it was useless. For some odd reason, the water smelled like Clorox . After you take your shower or wash your face and hands you will smell like bleach. The entire property is completely run down. Almost all of the lounge chairs around the pool are old and broken. They do not supply you with pool towels, you must bring your own pool towel from home. We had to run out to a store to buy them. If you want to eat, you need to go into town. You can get some appetizer type foods( chicken fingers, fries) by the pool which will take about an hour to get after you place your order. We paid $225 a night not worth it at all. Stay clear and do not waste your time or money.

Reading through some of the past reviews, I had some reservations. But the price is very reasonable during off-season, so I figured I would book. There wasn't an office to check-in due to off-season. Instead, there is a note on the window by the main entrance with contact info, which I called and immediately got a response. Once I figured how to contact the host, check-in was fairly easy. I drove to the room as instructed. The property is situated in a rural area away from the closest city. It's a countryside campground resort setting. Outside may seem dated, but the room has been renovated. It was clean and quiet for a nice escape, especially no partying happening this time of the year. I was glad to be well rested after a long day at work and returned to work the next day. Overall, I am pleased with the booking.

I decided to risk booking this place despite reviews, because I wanted a place my fiancée and I could go within the LGBT+ community closer to home. All weekend we kept saying how sad this place was, because you could tell it used to be amazing. We went on Fourth of July weekend and I thought it would be packed, because really, how many places are there for “us” left in the NYC metro area to get away? It was obvious that many couples learned it was much better to take advantage of the day pass for the pool and stay elsewhere, and after our stay, we have as well. The room was very basic and certainly not worth a third of what we paid, especially with the obvious issues with plumbing and water pressure that others have mentioned. The service was horrible, we attempted to have breakfast there but after being given spoiled cream for our coffee and waiting over 20 minutes for waffles we gave up. When we pointed out these issues to our server he just gave us a blank look and barely muttered an apology. The “nightclub” looks like it could have been good a few decades ago, but like everything else on the property fell prey to owners who couldn’t be bothered to do even normal upkeep. I hope someone else buys this place and restores it to its former glory because it would be an incredible place for our community to go. The next time we’re back it’ll be for a day pass to the pool to relax for a few hours with folks like us, but we’ll stay anywhere else.

Horrible, horrible experience. The resort is totally in disrepair and is in desperate need of a restoration. Rooms are dirty, AC’s are falling apart, and for some bizarre reason the water in the shower and bathroom smells like bleach. There’s so much dust in the room that when you pick it up it’s super thick. What’s advertised on their website is not reality. Stay away!! Don’t waste your money!

I have previously stayed here about a year ago and it was a great experience. But it seems like they changed management and staff recently. I booked a 2-night stay for my honeymoon and was really looking forward to it. However, I never got confirmation of my reservation but was charged. Thought that was very weird. Tried calling, it took days to finally get a hold of someone. Left voicemails and emails. Nothing. When I finally did get to speak to someone they said their "system was down" and they were not able to send confirmations and that there were actively working on sending it out. More days went by, about a week after making a reservation, and still nothing. Finally, I got fed up and requested a full refund via email. Of course, as soon as I sent the email requesting for my money back I get a call right away. It has been over two weeks and I still have not gotten a refund even though they said they would send it over right away. I had to file a claim with my bank. Super sketchy and scammy place! I would seriously avoid them at all costs. There is a reason there are so many bad reviews. This place has great potential. But it is not what is used to be. STAY AWAY!!

Absolutely terrible! We had booked a stay to this “resort” seeing it from social media it was nothing like the pictures or videos it was old and dusty the rooms were incredibly small we were told when we complained that the manager called and said we were put in the wrong room And we were going to be put in another room that was just as bad as the first ! Walking into the rooms we hit cobwebs absolutely disgusting. We told the front desk and they approved a full refund it’s now been almost two weeks we have yet to receive our refund the manager keeps ignoring our calls there’s no one else you can speak to about the refunds. Worst experience ever ! Truly a shame especially for such a nice area to be such a disgrace

The other reviews of this place are correct. Horrible quality and outdated rooms. Horrendous food, terrible service. I hate to say this, but It really is just a straight person slapping a few rainbow stickers on their business and calling it a gay destination, and then charging exorbitant prices. Seriously, don’t waste your money here.
