She seemed less than interested in our arrival. We'd arrived later in the evening. Our room was vey nice. Very comfortable. We decide to venture to the jacuzzi. No towels in the outside basket. We had to go inside to request clean towels. When the towels came out, we ask the young lady how to make the jets work in the jacuzzi? "Oh no, they're not working." No sorry, no other explanation, she just walked away. We did manage to get two jets working. It was pleasant. Breakfast was okay. Nothing special. The lady preparing the food was very nice. Checking out was easy and the young gentleman pleasant. Trouble started after we left. Our fault. We'd left our swimsuits in the closet. Have to say, 30 years of traveling we have left things behind in our hotels. Kids left toys, pillows, blankets.... It does happen. Not often! I called when we realized this, Tuesday after we'd departed. I explained we'd left our swim suits hanging in the closet. The woman said she'd check lost and found??? I'd given her our room #. She said the cleaners had not finished their rounds yet and to call back later. Okay then, but I just gave you the room number and told you where they were? Again our mistake, but where is the customer service? I was told to call back at the end of the day. I called at the end of the day. Great swimsuits found. I was then told the person who sends packages would be in touch in a day or two. Okay then.... Nope. I called again on Friday, giving the full two days for someone to call. I was then told the person is new and must have missed it. Okay, what now? Well, "you have to make a USPS for your package and we will send it on Thursday". What? "That's the day we send out mail". You cannot be serious. Why was I not told this when I initially called. I would not have to wait another week. Customer service is a big issue here. I should say severe lack of customer service! So disappointing. Yes we did get our suits. Again our fault for leaving them, but I never had such poor customer service.

This was our first experience at this property…read more There was plenty of parking and we were welcomed in by the desk staff. Check-in was smooth. I had booked two rooms as we were traveling with another couple. They let us each pay for our own rooms separately at check-in. The rooms are very nice. The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. Our rooms both had mini fridge and microwave which was a nice touch. The views were beautiful. There was an evening reception where we were offered a glass of the wine from the property vineyard. We sat out on the porch to enjoy the wine and the evening. The pool and hot tub are well maintained and were quite enjoyable. This was a great location for our stay. I would come back.

Kristen was incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and attentive. We enjoyed several private events at the winery throughout the weekend, and everything was beautifully done. The food was delicious and thoughtfully paired with a variety of wines from their collection. Even though the winery was buzzing with activity, the West family and staff were such amazing hosts. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and made us feel as though, in a room full of people, we were the most important guests there. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about this family and their beautiful vineyard. Their attention to detail was impressive. While the wine was delicious, it was Kristen, her family, and the team who truly made our weekend fun, relaxing, and memorable. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Thank you so much for everything you did to make our trip so special. We absolutely loved our experience and will definitely be back!

If you are going for the overall experience I'd say by pass this one and save your time. It's just not the wine tasting experience you'd expect for the area. As an example the only food option they have with wine tasting are bags of ancient pretzels that in and of themselves were rancid. Service was ok but we were the only people there. The pours for wine tasting were half that of others in the area. Ambiance was poor. Sitting outside in the direct sun on a wire spool table facing an old derelict building left a lot to be desired. Not recommended. See others I'd highly recommend instead.

Late afternoon, the temperature was in the 90s and a slushie sounded good. My sis-in-law and I got the slushies. The boys both got tastings. We thought the slushies were tasty, I would get that again. The boys were not as enthusiastic about their tasting. Everything was okay, but not great. The staff is really welcoming and it is a great space. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating, being on the east side of the building, and covered has nice shade from afternoon heat. The parking lot is good sized. They had a person doing balloon animals when we arrived which I thought was an interesting choice.

The way they make the wine is different than traditional methods, so just be aware you'll try some unique stuff when you come.

I enjoyed my flight, but I kept having to go up to the bar to get a new glass of wine. I wish they had an option where they gave you four glasses at once to try so you can compare/contrast in real time. I enjoyed the wine and overall I would come back on another trip.

The food was delicious as always. My suggestion is to try multiple different taco's because they are all very good. My favorites are the Oaxacan, fish and quesabirria. For appetizers you can't go wrong with the guac and elote. Now for the 2 things that motivated me to write the review. The cocktails were exceptional!! The fresh peach margarita is a must when in season. Last but not least the service was the best I have experienced in a looong time! Our waitress was attentive, engaging and friendly.

They do have outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. Vibe is that of a typical, nicely and modernly decorated Mexican restaurant. Interestingly, they do serve shots on a wood platter (similar to that of a cortado with sparkling water palette cleanser), and half shots as well that seemed popular to the locals. The man that told us to visit here actually told of us this, and we saw it in action. We had to tap out after a day of wine tasting. Our party of 4 ordered the Oaxacan, Carne Asada, Bomb Ass Fish Taco, and Pork Carnitas. I would rank them in that order too from best to least best (none were bad, but the pork carnita felt a little dry as the overall consensus of the table). The Poblano fries were amazing. They tasted truly fresh and right off the fryer. It comes with 5. Loved the aioli and salsa too. Lastly, they had a house made pineapple habanero hot sauce that was AMAZING!
