The property by itself is 20min far from the lake. The picture of the lake in hotel booking pictures will confuse you, well just letting you know there is no lake or river around the hotel. It’s a totally different Ritz property that you can book separately from the hotel and stay there. They charge $800 per person and it’s only for 24hours or less to spend there. Yes I checked the map as well before I was booking and was wondering how come in the pictures I see lake in front of the hotel but on the map not.

The property is beautifully designed and appointed. Unfortunately, during our stay, extensive remodeling was being done in multiple places, with multiple areas blocked off, making it difficult to get from place to place. It seems they could have done just one place at a time. And the room service charges were absolutely ridiculous, with the add-on charges for delivery, etc. more than doubling the base prices, which were already high.

The hotel is very outdated with cracks in the bathtub and dusty carpeting - had allergies all night due to the dust. Does not have a 5 star feel, small rooms with tiny balconies with hardly any standing room (no room for chairs or anything). The staff was amazing, especially room service staff, went above and beyond.
