Resort wants to put off being upscale but there are a number of items that come off cheap and cutting corners.

Lovely hotel

Lovely hotel , great food , comfortable , great view of the lake and nice staff . The only downfall was in the bar the cocktails were the worst I’ve ever had. They clearly need training on how to make them . I tried a few different ones and they were truly awful
