The paranormal reputation of this property appears in multiple haunted places databases. The most specific account describes a room at the end of the second floor where red eyes have been reported and sounds have been heard when the room was confirmed vacant. Staff and guests have reported a cowboy figure seen in the lobby, at the bar, and near the pool — described as a full-body apparition that appears briefly and then is absent.
Additional accounts describe 'aggressive encounters' and reports of physical contact, though these claims appear in aggregator databases without named witnesses, specific dates, or investigation documentation.
The property does not market itself around its paranormal reputation, and no paranormal investigations by named researchers have been published about this location. The accounts derive entirely from submitted visitor and staff reports to paranormal databases.
