"Very nice resort and spa."
Overall Score5.0/ 5
My husband and I went just for one night to the Founders Inn for our anniversary. While we were there, we had a couples massage at the spa and dinner at the restaurant. We enjoyed everything. When we were leaving the spa, my husband asked the lady if they offer longer massages. That's how much he enjoyed it.
