Even if you’re not a golfer, there’s a lot to do at this resort. The games were a huge hit with the kids. Love the fire pits. The food was good. Overall a great stay.

Traveled for the LSU vs Auburn women’s basketball game. The accommodations were outstanding and the grounds were beautiful. The breakfast buffet was delicious. Sure to stay again when we are back in Auburn.

Love! traveled with my family. Clean! Lovely! Staff was superior! 5 stars, will stay again! Great amenities, not enough time to experience all of them!
Beautiful property with amenities which they are happy to charge you an extra $30. per day for the use of the pool, gym and beautiful grounds. I felt that was an unacceptable up charge.
Rooms were nice enough/adequate. Amenities are exceptional. Housekeeping knocked on the door repeatedly before 9:30 and woke us up to see if we had checked out (checkout is 11)!!
Staff were very friendly. Breakfast buffet was pricey at $25/per. Room doors were in rough shape and significant gap at bottom of room door in 133, leaving a good amount of light coming in at night from parking lot. Beds were disappointing from a comfort standpoint. Property in general looked amazing.
Excellent property and extremely kind staff, as always. I would love to see a dart board in the game room. Live entertainment is always great, especially Mark. We have stayed here several times over the past couple years and will continue to, but i am sorry, the food and beverage areas continue to under impress. The options are very limited and the quality is rarely excellent. I was confused when my appetizer arrived on something that looked like a hospital tray with a plastic cover. The splash bar seems to always be understaffed during peak times resulting in much longer wait times for drinks. That being said, Ricardo and Drew were excellent and beyond helpful.
Property is fine. Showing its age a little, but in good condition. We wanted to use a hot tub after golf, but were disappointed with the functionality and usability of both the indoor and outdoor hot tubs. The outdoor was too cold and we had to ask hotel staff twice to make the water-churning mechanism function. Then we tried the indoor hot tub, but something inthe water---maybe way too much chlorine?--- burned our eyes. We stayed in the indoor hot tub less than 3 minutes because of that. Really not usable.
This place is by far the nicest hotel in the area and of course they charge accordingly. That being said, the golf course is AMAZING, the pool is very nice and all the amenities were what you would expect. Where I think this hotel falls short is two areas, the fine dining restaurant and the spa. The main fine dining restaurant is located downstairs on the first floor across from the sports bar, the food is very sub par. Steak was tasteless, mashed potatoes seemed like they came out of a bag and were microwaved, and the brussel sprouts were just mushy and gross. I've had better salads from chic filet, the cheddar rolls had no flavor and my sons pork chop was overcooked and dry. Basically everything was terrible and the manager's idea was to give me a 15% discount when there isn't one item that was edible. Spa was incredibly nice and the only complaint i had was the masseuse wore some type of gloves and wasn't very good.
