Room Relaxing

Upon arrival is the best time to unwind in your resort home. During Stay a Spell, you can stay in a themed home. As the story goes, while conjuring the hospitable hex for Stay a Spell: Broom & Breakfast, Willow’s cauldron overflowed with powerful magic, transforming a line of resort residences into unique and magical realms – Willow’s Harvest Hollow, Pumpkin Palooza, and Monster Party!

The Bis Grill has a full bar with a great selection of signature cocktails and plenty of favorite foods, such as sandwiches, pizzas, salads and burgers. We serve at the order window, at your chair or lounger, and under the shade sails. It’s a great place to fill up for your night ahead.
