It is a beautiful piece of property. Staff were wonderful. A special shoutout to Stephen and Heidi. We stayed early in the week on days that the restaurant wasn’t open. We have been there other times and have eaten in the Safari room and it has been great.

The property was great. The on-site restaurant had limited hours and days of operation, which was difficult as it’s quite a bit of ways from the center of town. Otherwise, it was perfect.
