“This resort caters especially to families, thanks to its comprehensive array of activities, from summer watersports on Peninsula Lake to winter snowshoeing, plus golf courses for all skill levels; yet, some may find that the dated rooms and extra fees detract from the overall value. While the setting in Huntsville provides a scenic backdrop, some amenities seem to lack attention to detail, potentially impacting the experience. It's a mixed bag, but one that works best for those prioritizing activities over luxury.”
