Romantic Getaway by the Lake

jazz entertainmentlake viewcoffee pods
I found the jazz entertainment perfect while dining at the restaurant (it created a romantic ambiance). The staff was friendly and very helpful. The view of the lake from our room was lovely and added to the overall experience.
I think coffee pods in the room each day would. A small addition can enhance the luxury experience.

The pool area looked fine and seemed acceptable for a quick dip.
The breakfast buffet had only two hot dishes. Eggs and bacon were the only options. I also noticed no tea available, strange indeed. The coffee machines was insufficient and they broke down for a while. What a mess.
