My only experience is dealing with management. I’ve performed here with my band countless times. The management team doesn’t do a great job with clarity in their contract, finding solutions to problems they created, and does not really advertise to the public.
It may have okay food, and might be a nice spot to walk around, however my experience here has never been great.

It's not a beach club. It's a campground that's not very well run at that. The "beach" is more like a small river pond with brown water. There are life guard on duty signs and no life guards on duty. The bathrooms are something out of a horror movie. The manager at the main gate was rude to the guests and should consider changing out of the hospitality business. They had some nice kid activities which were fun so I'm giving it 2 stars.

Really fun spot! We went as a guest. Huge slides into the water. Docks & diving boards. Bathrooms were kinda gross. People were lighting fire works off. There was a wedding happening. Golf carts riding everywhere. A lot was happening at once.
