Great property, beautiful grounds. Very attentive staff. The library is wonderful as well. Wish there was more chairs to sit in on the grounds. Clustered in pairs and we had 3 people. Air conditioning could have worked better and the room is in need of an upgrade, but it was large and comfortable. Let’s see what Steve Kerr and the new group can do for this beautiful, historical and charming property.
