This place sits squarely in the overpriced, mediocre food, fun vibe zone…read more For brunch, good luck getting the French toast to be cooked all the way through. I guess the chef doesn't want to cook anything because the bacon on my cheeseburger was undercooked, soggy, and all fat. The lobster rolls (hot or cold) are super bland and taste like someone threw a few chunks of lobster meat that's been sitting out all day in between a buttered bun. The vibes here are nice and service is always on point and I can't blame the waiter or manager for the subpar food. Nice spot for a sunset or waterfront view in a classy looking place or a great date night if your date is on GLP!

The buildings look brand new, the lawns are well manicured, the rooms are simple (no coffee machine!) and totally quiet, and the place is HUGE. However, it looks like operations restarted recently and the hotel is not operating at 100%. For instance, while they do serve a good breakfast buffet, there is no restaurant to eat at other than a cafe that only serves beverages and snacks and closes at 2 pm. Also - and this is my favorite part - the hotel was 99% empty when I visited! That was such a trip! I walked and walked and saw almost no one, except for maybe two employees and a small group that seemed to be having some sort of corporate event nestled in a far away corner of the very large premises. I felt like I was in a feel-good episode of the Twilight Zone. I'd go back just to walk around the empty grounds. It was so cool!!! A very surreal experience that I enjoyed very much. Oh - I did eventually run into the bartender and ended up chatting with her for a few hours. She was lovely!

Our rooms were ready right when we got there so that we could drop off our bags. Food/drinks were plentiful throughout the entire conference; every time there was a break from our talks, there was a wide array of snacks set out for us outside the main auditorium. The food during the main meals was also pretty good. The accommodations were pretty nice as well. They have a lot of nice indoor and outdoor spaces for gatherings. There are lots of beautiful spots on the property to walk around and enjoy the nature scenery. Overall, I had a fantastic conference experience here!

When I did our tour, I received replies and confirmations immediately. Upon arriving, you are greeted by the farm owners/tour guides, Steve and Leda. They are both knowledgeable, cordial, funny, and the entire tour was educational, fun, and wonderful. Aside from alpacas, you'll also be introduced to their horses and donkeys. After the tour, we went through their gift shop, which had everything alpaca. From socks, to hats, and even ribbons of their award winning alpacas. As the pictures and videos will show, I highly recommend this tour and know that you will be thoroughly impressed.

If you're in the mood to take a little road trip out of the city and you love alpacas (and who…read moredoesn't), this is a fun activity! It's a little family farm that offers farm tours for $15/person which you need to arrange beforehand. Leda and Steve, who run the farm, are the absolute nicest and you can tell they really love and care for their alpacas (as well as their two Icelandic horses). They have so much beautiful land to run around on and they're like part of the family, it seems. We were able to go into the girls pen and say hello. The alpacas are friendly and curious but don't necessarily like to be touched so they're very clear about how to approach them. After spending a good amount of time in there learning about them, we went into their farm store where they sell the yarn from the alpacas and various alpaca fleece items. It's a really fun and wholesome experience and, if you have other things to do out in that area, totally worth the time and the drive!
