A Get Away,

The hotel room was very accommodating with a full kitchen, jacuzzi tub, fireplace, and balcony. The restaurant food was fair. The female clerk at the Legend’s Golf course was not friendly and very rude. We chose not to golf because of the way we were treated.

Overall a really cool spot. The hotel is immaculately clean. Beds were comfortable. The grounds are beautiful. There is a lot to do outside of just golfing. My only complaint is that our hallway smelled of cigarette smoke. Every room has a balcony or patio. You could tell people were on the balconies smoking. Our room didn't smell or anything like that so a very minor issue.

Nice area and good size rooms. However everything was very outdated from the 70/80's. Tub/Jacuzzi was unuseable. Online photos make the property look nicer than what it is in person. Place has real potential and you can tell it was once a gem, but upgrades really need to happen.
