We stayed there many times over the years, both with our kids and more recently just the 2 of us, in various sections. It was an easy 8 hour drive for us and we always found lots to do and see in the area.
We almost didnt return after our first stay in the early '90s. We were there with our 3 then young children and went out every day to do stuff. On our 3rd or 4th day we returned at lunch time and when pulling up to our unit we saw the front door wide open. I knew I had been the last one out and had pulled it closed tight behind me when we left earlier. DH went in and told the rest of us to stay in the car. Soon after he went in I heard him yell 'what are you doing' so I jumped out of the car and ran in. DH had found a staff member rummaging through the drawers in our bedroom. We dont know if she was a cleaner or what, but she took off running out the front door and across the parking lot. The kids said she did not get into a car that they could see. There was no mid-week cleaning at that time. We looked to see if anything was missing (there wasnt), then drove over to the office to report what had happened. The manager was very apologetic and promised to look into it. The woman ran off so fast we didnt notice a name tag but I was able to say what she had been wearing. We never heard another thing during our week and I left a review with the resort and RCI about our stay. RCI refunded our Extra Vacation week cost, the resort did nothing.

Sad to see it go.
