This joint is a bag of mixed results.
Firstly, the "pros":
You can always find this place stocked with the most gourmet of ingredients for most of their dishes. Plenty of cheese and charcuterie to go around.
In addition, the owners seem hell-bent on keeping their vast list of amenities current and up-to-date. They have fantastic swimming facilities, and an outdoor bar to go along with it. While I believe their (very) young bartender charges a bit much for some of the drinks, the selection is fantastic, if a little of the IPA-heavy side of things.
The gentleman of the house insists on upgrading the TV each and every year, which is a great plus! Oddly enough, expect him to hound you to see if he can somehow get a discount through you. Weird.
However, there are plenty of "cons" to help balance things out:
The owners are a bit weird. The gentleman of the house, who I believe is a wealthy oil tycoon from somewhere overseas, insists on completing many of his noisy outdoor projects all odd hours. Full ride-on lawn mower operation? That'll be 5:30AM SHARP. Need help figuring something out with your room situation late at night? He's at the local Lowe's, buying lumber for his latest bird-palace project, probably. Can never quite find him around the location when you need him.
The lady of the house is VERY RUDE. It's her way or the highway, and trust me: in this establishment, the customer is ALWAYS WRONG! While the food and cleanliness is top notch, expect anything that is even the slightest bit off to be blamed on YOU, the paying guest.
It's also abundantly clear that there is no screening process for those allowed to stay on the premises. The seedy characters you can catch wandering about the grounds are cause for concern. There was a very unkempt man who was always hovering, and said very little, except every so often muttering about taking my wife to see the latest Marvel movie. Unsettling.
Also there is a random old man who shows up unannounced from time to time, talking about his various "side hustles"...I believe he is the groundskeeper? He is often seen waving a pistol around and offering to share his supplements with whomever is nearby. I have also observed this individual freely dipping into the alcohol supplied by the owners throughout the working hours of the day. Could do without.
I believe they also employ a ex-military man seasonally throughout the year, mostly to manage poolside events. Be aware that this guy can get pretty "handsy", and is a walking #METOO incident waiting to happen. STAY AWAY!
This is an updated review from earlier, where they had large white rats with hunchbacks and raging erections freely roaming the property. Have not seen in quite some time. Thanks for taking care of this problem! read more
