The property overall was very pretty and had a background of Camelback in the Landscaping. the pool was dirty and the color of the water was green. The service in the restaurant was good. We had ordered food twice, once we checked in and also a dinner. The dinner was a nice presentation, but I had gotten sick. Day after dinner I was in bed with a terrible headache and vomiting. The room that was booked is very unique.

Beautiful resort with amazing views!

We were so grateful the front desk allowed us to check in early so we could start enjoying the amenities. We headed straight for the pool where we stayed for the afternoon. We ordered food pool side, the club sandwich and French fries were delicious! We also had a few drinks before we headed in to get ready for dinner. We ended up eating dinner at Hearth 61, the onsite restaurant. The ambiance, food, and service were great, although it did take a bit to get our drinks. We also paid for late check out so we had time to get breakfast at the bar at Hearth 61 and go enjoy the pool for a few hours before we left. Overall, very satisfied with our stay and would highly recommend it to my friends and family
