“The staff was incredibly accommodating, knowledgeable, and kind,” said our tester. “Even with kids running a bit amok, I never felt like I had to be apologetic for it.” She also raved about the food. “We did a few lunches by the lake, which was just such a beautiful backdrop,” she said. “Plus, my husband is gluten-free and we’re both dairy-free, and they were always able to accommodate us.”
