Beautiful spot nestled in the mountains. The place we stayed in was perfect. The backyard was enclosed which is ideal for the pups. The pickleball courts are top notch! If i were to visit again i would bring a few things like dishwasher tabs, paper towels, wine opener etc... but we were very happy with our stay and very comfortable.the whole time.

The property was great. We stayed in the Family Cabin (only one available-booked late) that was in a duplex. Really nice. Clean, big front porch, table, chairs, microwave, little fridge etc. Property grounds were amazing. So much to do like swim, pickleball, basketball, walking, etc. The Peak Restaurant was amazing. Food was really good. Drinks were good. Staff was great. I only have 1 complaint out of the entire stay: The shower was way too small. Ladies, make sure you come hair free because you can't move in the shower and there is no way to shave. The shower is smaller than the shower in our camping trailer. No joke. They should've put the shower head on the other wall to make it bigger. It's tiny. The showers in the duplexes are anyhow. Not sure how the showers are in the hotel rooms or other places to stay on the property.

Ok… could be better

The property is absolutely beautiful! We arrived late at night and it was very difficult for us to find our cabin even with using the map. Maybe some better signage with lighting would help? Also, the bed was OK. The sheets were cheap and the pillows were very uncomfortable. The pillows were all mushy and your head went right through them maybe a better variety of pillows and some quality sheets would help? It’s such a beautiful place. You could really make it a five star hotel by upgrading some of the creature comforts.
