Wow ,it is like going home everyone is very nice and treats you like you are family. It is a great place to visit and stay for a weekend. Great golf course with views out of this world. The food is out of this world.
We enjoyed a lovely Mother’s Day brunch at the steakhouse. One of the highlights was the steak on a stone, served on a hot plate that lets you sear the meat to your preferred level of doneness right at the table — such a fun and interactive touch.
The salmon BLT was nicely seasoned and full of flavor, though the salmon itself was a little on the dry side. To finish, the special dessert was a delicious hummingbird cake served with slices of pineapple and banana, which made for a sweet ending to the meal. Overall, a relaxing brunch experience with great atmosphere and thoughtful presentation.
We enjoyed staying here and will definitely be back! All the staff was very friendly and the food was good. My husband enjoyed the golf course!
