Gorgeous room & quiet surroundings but i wish there was a clearly marked trail or walking path. I also feel registered guests should have free access to enjoy the lake area.
The staff is very personable and friendly. The place is really peaceful and I love the theme. I had a great time and I am planning to visit again soon. Thank you!
The Mandala Room was absolutely perfect! It had breathtaking views, amazing bed and wonderful shower and bath tub. So romantic and sweet! Staff were also very kind and attentive!
Such a beautiful and peaceful experience, a great and much needed getaway from the world! Awesome staff and service and phenomenal food!! Can’t wait to go again!
It was a perfect 3 day mountain get away. In a beautiful suite overlooking lake Cyumaca. A wonderful staff always available to help. We are planning on a return trip this summer.
Staff was very nice. I was a little disappointed with our room. The pictures definitely make it look much nicer than what it was. Gym was a little outdated. Also there are quiet hours on property which I wasn’t aware of before.
Booked the romantic suite - Not what we expected. The side panels to the tub were literally coming apart and the outside daybed had a lot of white stains on it. Key getting jammed trying to get into our suite at night.. and Sarah mentioned providing complimentary rose petals upon arrival and did not receive any. Overall, not an ideal place for a couple in their 20’s. It’s more of an older folk retreat home.
