I had to cancel one day, due to the bathrooms being locked, the attendants said the sewer was stopped up, also the water had a bad smell and had a bad taste to it, and had no phone service at Carter Cove. Also the wind blew hard the three days we were down there, hopefully next time will be better

I have to say it was the cleanest I have seen this place in many years. The new couple running it is amazing and have done a lot to the place.
