My stay at the resort was quite disappointing overall. While the rustic style and surroundings were appealing, the lack of cleanliness and maintenance made it hard to enjoy. The service was inattentive and rather unhelpful when issues arose. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place.

The resort has a lovely natural environment with a spacious pool that my kids absolutely loved. However, there were several cleanliness issues in the room, particularly with maintenance and service efficiency. Overall, it has potential but needs better coordination and upgrades to enhance the experience.

The room had a rustic charm but unfortunately lacked cleanliness and maintenance. I found some forgotten items under the TV cabinet and there were cleanliness issues that need addressing.

The hotel is set in a stunning environment, surrounded by nature, which really adds to the overall experience. The rooms are beautifully decorated and clean, and I particularly enjoyed the soothing sounds from the waterfall nearby. However, my stay was marred by poor service at times, and there were significant cleanliness issues when I first arrived. Overall, it offers a serene escape, but it could certainly use some improvements.

The resort has a lovely ambiance set in nature, with clean log cabins and comfortable beds. However, the service was lacking, particularly during the dining experience where staff seemed inattentive, and the food quality didn't match the expectations of a five-star resort. The location offers a peaceful retreat but is quite distant from downtown attractions, which might be inconvenient for those without a car.
