We were the very first guests!! They just opened. I was hesitant at first bc there were only reviews from 5 years ago. I didn’t realize they just renovated and reopening!! It was just awesome! Absolutely gorgeous. Every single last detail was considered. I highly recommend this beautiful property. Everyone was soooo nice. Pool was gorgeous. Dog friendly. Didn’t get a chance to try the food but looked delicious.
