I was recently here for 2 days for my friends wedding. It was stunning. The Firepit was nice to sit around and chat at night.. the rooms were clean and comfortable and we spent many hours in the Jacuzzi!The food was exceptional and the staff was very attentive. I wish we had reserved for more than just one overnight stay. I will definitely return for another event.Hoping to take my family there or a few days when they visit! I highly recommend this facility! It is so quiet and peaceful there with beautiful HUGE garden area.
