Amazing fantasy theme village with rooms that carried the theme all the way down to the stone floors and pottery coffee mugs. Beautiful, well maintained grounds with a pond and walking trails. We enjoyed visiting with other travelers around the fire pit in the evening. We would love to stay again!

The village is beautiful and the staff very helpful. Wonderful place to spend a few days and unwind. Room was immaculate and very charming. Landscaping was so beautiful and attention to detail was noticeable. The food at dinner was very inadequate and substandard. It was served and done in 35 minutes. We were not offered any drinks or even shown a drinks menu.

Super cute fairytale-like themed rooms, gorgeous gardens and fun amenities like the fire pit, games areas and hammocks. We had the farm-to-table meal: delicious spring mix salad, very mid pasta alfredo with chicken main and cheese cake for dessert. The setting was beautiful, but the food didn't really match the "chef prepared" hype I was expecting. Nonetheless, we were happy to have the offering so we didn't have to travel out and sitting family style we met some other interesting travelers. As far as rooms, the Leprechaun's Laire village room with the hand-laid pebble fireplace really appealed to me. It's interesting architecture, gold flecked walls and well-chosen finishes were really charming. During that evening we had a problem with the deadbolt, so when the door no longer closed, they moved us to the 2-story 2BR/2BA treehouse. It was fun having the extra space, but the interior design was more luxury rugged and slightly less charming. Overall, we were very pleased with our one night stay at the Ancient Lore Village on our roadtrip!

Our stay here was just ok. The price was not worth it in our opinion. You get no extra amenities. They don't even make sure that the people paying to stay can enjoy the full experience. I didn't even know you have to reserve the dining 24 hrs in advance and they make no acceptions. Not to mention, I was completely ignored when I walked into the main office to check in. About 10 staff walked past me without any acknowledgement. I will not be returning.
