"The entire property is being remodeled. We were notified the day before our stay that key amenities (pool, spa, breakfast, etc.) would be unavailable. Cancellation was offered, but we only needed a place to sleep, so we stayed. We arrived around 3 p.m. while crews were still working, and their music carried across the property until about 5 p.m. The rooms appeared recently finished but still had strong paint/off-gassing odors. Our biggest issue was the exterior doors—no weather stripping or thresholds, with visible gaps letting in daylight (and potentially bugs or small animals). Only one room in our row had a proper seal; I was able to switch rooms. Each room had a porch light but no switch to control it. The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were too soft. The AC/heat worked well and was fairly quiet. No fridge in the room, though one was available in a shared laundry area. Soundproofing is poor—we could clearly hear neighbors above us early in the morning and late at night. There was also debris scattered on the hillside outside. Nearby dining helped salvage the stay—McGarity’s was excellent. The fire pit area was enjoyable, though lacking proper extinguishing resources per posted rules. Overall, not a terrible stay, but it didn’t live up to the name, photos, or expectations. Might be worth revisiting after renovations are complete."
