Smilin Tru Resort was awesome! The family really needed the time away. Cant stop talking about the canoeing, was great !We had so much fun :)
Kitchen stuff
We did not have all the kitchen utensils ,broom and mop. Also a prop in the bathroom. Then we saw the list say if stuff is not there ,there will be a cost:( that was a concern. Made a note of what was not there and gave it to the reception.
Music was not allowed but our neighbours was playing music! My children end up also playing. So important that everyone stick to the rules
