Just okay. Peaceful property but could do without the doggie bag station just outside our patio. Resented paying valet for a car parked 50 feet in front of the entrance. Dinner was excellent; server got lost when we asked for a wine list. Bartender and maitre’d lost their mind when I merely asked to take two cocktail glasses in plain sight to my room. I was admonished by both and told to call room service next time. Otherwise fine.

What an amazing property. The grounds are beautiful. I will say that after a fantastic valet experience, we were disappointed to witness two staff members going at it as we waited to check in. A front desk staff member was loudly speaking to a non-front desk staff member to get off the computer so we could be checked in. He refused and they had words. It was very unprofessional all the way around. Once the person got off the computer a front desk staff sat down and checked us in. Not one staff member said a word to us, like we apologize for the exchange we heard. It was very uncomfortable and not a great start to our stay. The room was missing a picture above the fireplace. The beds were not made with fitted sheets. We dined in the bar and the food and service was good, but felt wonky because people felt hurried and sadly no real connection was made between us and the staff. We do want to give props to the shuttle services to and from town. These staff members were excellent and we made a connection on the ride into town.
