"Pros: The Lodge was great! Beautiful views and all conveniently located to all of the trails and amenities. Front desk staff were always awesome. Diving pool was intimidating but fun!
Cons: Dining options were non existent. They have an on-site restaurant that was still non-existent for the most part. All the negative reviews are correct on the restaurant.
Let me start with this: I NEVER LEAVE BAD REVIEWS... This will be the exception. Literally took us 1hr, 40+ minutes to receive food.. only got 2 refills in that time. Not an exaggeration. We didn't bring any other food and didn't want to leave the resort because it was evening time or we would have left. We were told that they didn't have ranch dressing for the salads after we received the salads, didn't have any sweet tea (table next to us had sweet tea brought by a different waiter), and they got cornbread switched with rolls.. the waitress lied about that, too and said they didn't have cornbread so they had to do rolls... But my GF got cornbread.. so they got it switched by accident but they were just lying. Then they said they're out of the buffalo sauce for my tenders... We found all that out AS THEY WERE BRINGING THE FOOD more than an hr and 49 minutes later. I then asked if there was a manager that could help with knocking some stuff off and the waitress had the full to say "Why?" You know why. Almost 2 hr wait on an incomplete meal with ton of stuff wrong and out. Worst experience I've ever had dining."
