My wife and I had the pleasure of celebrating our anniversary at a picturesque resort for a few days. Our host was exceptional, and the attention to detail was remarkable. We felt truly welcome from the moment we entered the establishment. The ambiance exuded an immediate sense of comfort and enjoyment, as evidenced by the welcome card, basket of treats, and luxurious linens. Additionally, the ample coffee pods and other amenities ensured our comfort throughout our stay. The balcony offered breathtaking views, and the kitchen was equipped with all the necessary conveniences. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the bathroom was thoroughly stocked.
Beautiful room and view of the lake! The only negatives were the restaurant and grill situation. It’s really convenient to have the drinks delivered to pool and not have to leave the property. However, the food and service was terrible. We had to wait two hours for dinner and the cook was mad at us for asking to comp the meals. We had bought steaks to grill one night, but the grills are all the way by the tennis courts. Overall, it’s a beautiful community and the place was very clean and well stocked with supplies. Would recommend.
