Spacious and Comfortable

I had a wonderful stay at Boulder Ridge Villas! The room was clean, spacious, and perfectly appointed. My brother-in-law had points and let us use them for one night, and surprisingly, I found it had a laundry facility, which I wish I’d known about earlier. The comfortable amenities and great layout made it feel like home, especially after long park days. I can't wait to return for an extended stay!

Fantastic Dining Options

Geyser Point Bar & Grill was an absolute highlight of our stay! The outdoor seating by the water was stunning, and I loved the quick service for our meals. We enjoyed delicious lunch options, and I was particularly fond of the atmosphere. Eating there while taking in the gorgeous views made for a lovely break during our busy days!

Poolside Relaxation

The pools at Boulder Ridge Villas were amazing! My family spent a lot of time at the main pool, which was not only refreshing but also fun for the kids with its water slide. We even enjoyed leisurely afternoons in the hot tubs. The pool games added an extra layer of enjoyment. After a long day at the parks, it was the perfect spot to unwind.

I had a pleasant stay at Boulder Ridge Villas, enjoying the vintage-themed decor and the spacious room that accommodated my family nicely. The grounds were beautiful and the amenities were generally good, though I found the dining options a bit limited.
