Beautiful location-exceeded my expectations. On the water, nice pool, really nice lobby with breakfast cafe opening at 6 AM. Exceptionally nice staff. Crackers restaurant, on the property, is fantastic with perfect outdoor seating on the water. I was traveling alone and tired after a day of activities so great to just walk steps to eat. Wait staff were very, very nice. Lodge was so close to kayaking and manatee swim locations. Room was very comfortable with plenty of towels and toiletries, microwave and fridge.
