Top-Notch Resort in the Mountains
The entire resort property is wonderful. High-touch service, well-appointed rooms with heated bathroom floors, screen porch, fireplace, robes, refrigerator, Nespresso coffee maker. We were in Blue Valley cottage 29. We did not visit the Spa but the fitness center and pool were awesome.

Girls trip. Historic hotel. Excellent service. 5 star.
Lovely hotel located on the heart of the Highlands. Couldn’t have a more desirable location, right in the middle of the town. This stay was for a girls trip. Superb service, as well as dining. The live entertainment in the the bar was enjoyable as well.

Exceptional – World Class
Simply wonderful. We stayed in the older main house and had a suite with a balcony. The room was in utter good taste with a completely renovated bathroom. Like being in a sophisticated European castle. The grounds and pool are beyond lovely and charming. We also had multiple meals at the property and my wife utilized the spa, all were exceptional.
