The location and grounds along the lake were very nice. The restaurant and choices from the menu and buffet were also excellent. The only downfall would be that the 2 pools were not in pristine condition as the one closest to the restaurant looked like it had not been cleaned in awhile and the one by the lake was cleaner however it had a lot of bugs and leafs floating on the surface. Overall however the staff made up for those downfalls.
