Grand Harbor Resort and Waterpark

10/10 Excellent
"Adult hot tub closed for maintenance. I get that. Water park is really geared towards younger kids. The entire place seems well run at this time, a great value of you are within a couple hours give it a shot. Our room has a nice view of the river. Only thing I would change is get rid of the Tony Roma restaurant, put in a pizza joint. I must have seen a could hundred Dominos pizza boxes delivered. "
