Also not-to-be missed are Family Nights every Tuesday on The Plaza, complete with live music, games, food and local vendors. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday the resort hosts Movie and Game Nights, also on the Village Plaza, offering fun games like cornhole, ping pong, giant Jenga and bingo for families to enjoy before a flick under the stars.
