Nor did I know about the James Beard recipient chef that runs the restaurant! It was great to enjoy the resort and even better that our dog could come!

"The room looked nice and was as clean as it could be given the finishes. A/C unit was odd and I would not have been comfortable using it. The road to the entrance was very rough. Not sure of the immediate neighborhood. The reservation said check in was only from 3-6 and otherwise you had to call and coordinate with the sister property. Door and windows were old and a bit rickety. There was a very loud cat meowing outside the window on and off during the night. Very nice included breakfast. Not really as expected but good for a one night stay."
