I think after seeing the wide lens pictures, positive reviews, and cost of over $350+ a night, our expectations were higher than they should have been. All the photos of these luxurious sitting areas throughout the resort felt more like a furniture gallery and were all lumped by the check-in desk. Their were rust stains all over the exterior buildings and stairs. The outdoor furniture was faded and dilapidated. It just felt like someone put a lot of love into making this place, but then forgot to maintain it and started cutting corners to save money.
I know we were warned that the hot breakfast was no longer included in the (expensive) cost of our stay, which feels pretty tacky, but they assured us we could enjoy the continental breakfast. That breakfast included a couple pastries, bread, and some yogurt. Honestly the chain hotels have better continental breakfasts. And the indoor dining area was filled with Ikea outdoor chairs...
Our studio room was redeeming, at least. The giant 2 person tub, updated TV, fireplace, and comfortable bed were enjoyable. I just wish our view wasn't of a memory care facility on one side, and a bank and enormous solar panels on the other.
The pool and hot tub were nice but not super clean. Understandable with an outdoor pool. The wine bar was a pleasant addition - great selection of local wines.
Overall, it was okay, but SO not worth the cost. Next time we'll stay closer to town.
