"Our stay was nice. My husband enjoyed the golf, especially The Keep golf course. Our only complaint was the service at the restaurants. Obviously, they are lacking on staff and the service level is below what you would you expect at a resort of this caliber. Hopefully, they can solve this problem in the near future. The facility is very nice and we enjoyed our trip."
