Amazing stay, everyone was welcoming and really treated you like as if you were Mr. Palmer himself. Genuinely look forward to coming back. Very disappointed in the golf situation. As we know, no one can control the weather, however when you can only complete 9 holes due to the forecaddied group ahead taking over 3 hours in the rain to complete their 9 holes, you’d expect at least a half round refund. Unfortunately for me, I just got an “Oh well” and that was it. Wouldn’t mind completing that 9 holes one day seeing I’ve paid for it!

Not Worth the Money

For the price I paid, I was expecting spectacular and got ho hum. Check jn was kind of “eh.” Dining room was completely booked so I had to sit at the bar. Bartenders were too busy serving the locals to give good service. Very limited menu. Expensive burger was overcooked (well well done instead of medium.). Had to ask for the dessert menu twice and never came back the ask if I wanted dessert. Room was larger than a standard hotel room by a little bit. Bed and linens were very comfortable. Room was quiet. Check out was quick.

The rooms were a good size and liked the fact that the shower was high pressure unlike many other hotels. Also the staff were very polite and the breakfast choices were amazing. We also loved the fact it was a sit down breakfast where you are served vs a buffet.

I was quite disappointed; the service is poor. We stayed in a guesthouse with two bedrooms, which was poorly equipped, old, and dirty. For the price, I expected much more. Wifi didn’t work
