No greeting when checking in, no thank you when checking out. Stayed there for highly rated restaurant and bar; but it was closed the two nights were there. We had to park in a distant parking lot up a significant number of steps. But when checking out, I watched an employee in an orange jeep take the prime parking spot. I was really unimpressed with the staff overall. Facility was nice, but unappreciative staff earned this rating!

Resort amenities were less than expected. The fishing poles were broken, there were limited water accessories, no paddle boards and it was all pretty weathered. The outdoor activities were noisy— construction, lawn mowers, moving heavy equipment and delivery trucks, all made it hard to enjoy the serene outdoor area for multiple days.

The property is very tired looking. We heard they have new owners so maybe it will improve. Grounds had trash dropped & not picked up for days in common areas. Historical rooms need a full renovation. No usb connectors. Bathroom from the 80’s, furniture too. Windows have a film so views aren’t great. We won’t be back.

Beautiful place. Very quiet and comfortable. Not a fan of the resort fee as I wasn’t there long enough to even use the amenities. I was there for a wedding and the staff seemed frazzled.

I went away with an "It was OK" experience. Hotel, though nice, was very dated. The restaurant was ok but very loud. The staff were vwry pleasant and helpful. For the price would I.do.it again? Probably not. To be fair they had a number.of activities associated with the hotel we didnt use becauae of our short stay. Perhaps a longer stay and utilizing some of the things they offer would justify the cost.
