"We stayed overnight recently on a short trip from Orange County. We were so thrilled with this place that we can’t wait to come back again and explore the area more. The hotel itself is quaint and beautiful. The grounds were covered with an array of flowers and then apple trees were blossoming so it felt like we were in Kyoto during cherry blossom season. We spent a bit of time walking around outside the lobby and the wooded areas around the end. The staff could not be nicer or more helpful....

"Here for two nights to visit friends in the Alpine area. The grounds, fire pit area, and pool/ spa are really nice. The bed was good enough. The sheets are low quality but fine for a couple nights. The breakfast is just not worth visiting. The omelettes, potatoes, and sausage were probably made days before, frozen, and then heated for the chafing dishes. Just not really palatable.
