Christmas at the Raintree
It was fabulous!! They left us some sparkling cider as it was Christmas. The unit was clean and well appointed. It was too warm with no way to control temp within the unit. The lobby was decorated for the holidays and the staff was so fun and friendly. We will be back and the price was fabulous.

Amazing! Must do!
This stay was absolutely amazing! One of the best places we’ve ever stayed at with a price that was unbelievable! Granted I know it’s not during peak time but this hotel would still be worth it!

This was a fantastic hotel. I got a two bedroom suite with full kitchen for an excellent price for two nights (4 adults). They have a heated pool (the front desk person said they have people swimming all year around!) and a hot tub. The room was spacious, with an electric fireplace in the main room and tvs in all the rooms.
