Otherwise, everything else was g...

Wonderful overall experience! My wife came for a private event and I spent the evening hanging out enjoying the lobby ambiance. We had some issues with the valet service's computer system, but Josh at the front desk resolved it and kept us company while waiting for everything to go through. He was great! Rick at the Terrace bar ruled too.

Given that the large terrace behind (towards the creek) was always empty, it would have been nice to have a pool extension there. The old “indoor” portion looked really good (with the now defunct jacuzzi), but this has been made into an extended d...
