I visited Club Getaway during their Fall Finale, this past weekend and I had a blast. I was part of a group celebrating a birthday party and they were excellent at accomodating us. Check in took a while because the parking lot is a little bit of a walk from the main buildings. So if you drive up, you'll have to disembark from your car and then wait for their shuttles, which I was fine with. To my [pleasant] surprise they were also requiring negative Covid Antigen Tests. My only gripe here was the fact that the check in table was inside of a main lodge while happy hour was happening and it wasn't apparently clear where to go after getting off of the shuttle. I know they did that because of the sheer volume of people that were checking in at the same time but maybe they could've transitioned to the information booth after a period of time? The rooms were basic cabins consistent with what I was expecting on camp grounds and they were clean. They provided towels but no basic toiletries (e.g. shampoo, conditioner & soap/body wash) so bringing your own was a prerequisite. Beware of the heating and A/C elements during the Fall. They're pretty powerful. Light adjusements were best. As far as food, I was pretty satisfied. Actually, I probably ate too much. Their lunch buffet was the best! Make sure to have the jalapeno and white chocolate breads. Breakfast was a full spread too. Dinner offered multiple protein options nightly. My only "ding" on the food came here as the salmon I tried had a questionable texture/temperature (as far as I know, no one got sick). As far as activities, they were STELLAR, which is no surprise. You can go absolutely ham or take it easy. Some improvements can be made in some of the equipment though (e.g. The feathers were missing on some of the arrows during archery leading to errant flight). For their Halloween Themed night, the crew went over the top with an incredible Haunted trail culminating in a fantastic DJ'd party in their boathouse! The initial Halloween night operation could be tweaked though. We had an anticlimactic live music performance in the Main lodge that went on for a while. The shuttling to the Haunted trail should have began a little earlier during that performance and I would suggest two shuttles to move things along a little bit. There was a LOT of milling and waiting that tired some people out. Otherwise, the Halloween party was epic. Music was great but some of the more mixed cultural music didn't get played until half of the crowd had already left for the night. My suggestion here is to play the same Pop/Top 40/EDM in the begining. Then mix in the Reggaeton/AfroBeats/Hip-Hop/Musica Urbana midset. Finally finish with slower Pop/Top 40/Old School Hip-Hop etc. Bottom line overall: If you have the chance, you should definitely go! The staff is super friendly and very accomodating. You'll definitely have a Great time! Special Mentions: Maggie: Appalachian Trail Hike Leader - She was very pleasant and good at explaining things along the way. James: Cocktail Mixology Instructor - Very knowledgable and well spoken on the subject. He was an absolute gentleman! Lisa: Tailgate Staff - The sweetest person and super athletic. Gary: Groups/Event Coordinator - Excellent work accomodating our group of 18 people. There was also a Hispanic/Latina young lady with Black curly hair who assisted me with check in, at the bar buring the day by the boathouse and room checkout on the last day. I feel terrible for forgetting her name but she was ALWAYS smiling and always ready to help!

It varies based on which weekend you go and what's going on and whether you occupy one or two rooms. Your best bet is check online and/or call them.
