Hands down the nicest and most polite from staff I’ve ever encountered. I wish I knew the young ladies name who checked us in, but she was the sweetest person. Everyone there was very polite and helpful. The place was beautiful. Located right across the street from the lake. Couldn’t have stayed at a nicer place for the money.

When we first arrived, they had us in a room over the kitchen. I expressed that it was in an undesirable location for our family and they immediately switched our room. The room amenities were nice but would have liked to have coffee available in the room. Food was great although extremely pricey. The Chimichurri was perfectly prepared and went well with the wagyu steak. Great location but seems they may lose some view as there is something being built across the street.
