The property itself is beautiful, with nice views and a pleasant atmosphere. We had breakfast at the on-site restaurant, which was very good each time. The disappointments - our room was hot. The common areas were even hotter. It seems there’s no A/C in the rooms after peak summer, even if it’s hot outside. We were given a fan that rattled, but that only does so much. There was the big tub…with no...

Fabulous experience staying here. Very accommodating. The grounds are gorgeous. The entire property is so comfortable and pet friendly. We decided to extend our stay and even though they were fully booked we’re able to pull some strings to accommodate us. Restaurant was also delicious!!

The decor was very nice and the place was very nice. The appetizer was delicious!

Would recommend this hotel to all my friends and family and easily rate this stay a 10/10. Well done staff and team...
