We visited during Thanksgiving Family camp which was for 3 days. Such an amazing place, staff and ambience. The quality of the food was good. The menu included ample vegetarian options which we were relieved of. The family mini activities they organized were fun.

This is a very nice place to come on a retreat. The area is full of amazing views. There are lots of hiking trails, a tennis court, and a playground for kids. The food was very good, and the service was excellent. The rooms have not been remodeled in some time, and the mattress was worn, otherwise it would have been 5 stars.
