This resort spa was a lovely retreat with clean and comfortable amenities, and a beautiful view of the lake that truly enhanced the experience. The staff made my stay enjoyable with their welcoming service. However, the dining options fell short of my expectations, especially at breakfast, and the pool area, while nice, could use a little more attention. Overall, it was a good value for a relaxing getaway.
