The retreat had more amenities than we expected. Very nice landscaping and grounds. We stayed in a standard king room in one of the 2-story buildings, which was a clean, basic room for a value price. Bed was comfortable; sheets slightly worn/pilly. Very nice staff. Would stay here again, probably spend the $ for a nicer room.

The staff were nice and attentive. The only issue we had was that our cabin's kitchen lacked the basic supplies, and the oven did not work. I will say it needs improvement in kitchen utensils and appliances.

This is a lovely property, very comfy and the restaurant on site offers delicious quality food and drinks. The cabin was cozy and clean. We were about 5 mins from the town area that also is very cute and has some shops that sell interesting stuff. I highly recommend staying here. Very good quality for the price. Will be returning soon!

Heat worked great! Staff was very friendly and helpful. One waitress in the restaurant clearly was unhappy and abrupt, but the rest of the wait staff were excellent. Food was terrific for dinner and Sunday brunch. The restaurant even allowed our dog to sit with us inside for dinner! Our server brought her water and a treat! We had a room with two beds, which was rather cramped. No desk or table or even a chair, which we would have wanted. Beautiful, spacious grounds with a huge, mostly fenced area where our dog ran and played fetch. We would stay here again and just ask for a larger room.
