We arrived here on the second leg of our week long spring break trip after 3 nights and 4 days of camping at Jumbo Rocks in Joshua Tree. The views are amazing with the beautiful views of the Red Rocks. Check in was easy and the ladies helping were very friendly. I have to say one person shined and her name is Kay. She was super patient when my kids locked us out not once, but twice!! Then brought up a bag to our room full of electronics that my son left on the ground by the car. Her husband Roy who is a wrangler at the horse stables found my sons lost watch and she even brought it up. She refused a tip! Such amazing service.
The best was the horse ride in the morning. Very fun and breath taking views. Steve was very knowledgeable on flora and fauna of the desert. Kris and Roy were great too. My kids had a blast.
We ate dinner and breakfast at the restaurant. Both were good and prices were decent. Bar tender was friendly, wait staff were pretty ok. Our breakfast waitress was a bit rude.
The hotel is cute but older. Clean, comfortable and Decently priced. The kids loved the animals. We really didn't go the town or petting zoo. We visited Red Rock Canyon and Valley of Fire instead.
I say skip Vegas with all of its craziness. Come here and you may even see a wild burrow. We did and it was so cool! It's a little cheesy and a whole lot of fun!
