Hotel was nice but we asked for a course view room. We could see the grass but never expected to be ground floor. It was extremely disappointing as this was my husbands 60th birthday and I wanted it to be special. We had people walking by our windows randomly several times a day due to being on the ground floor. The room was also very separate from the rest of the hotel down the hallway to the conference rooms. For the price we paid for a view of the course, had I known I would have stayed elsewhere and saved myself the disappointment and cost.

We absolutely loved our stay here. Our room opened up onto the 17th tee which for my partner was really a thrill as he is such a golf enthusiast. It is absolutely beautiful and in an iconic setting.
