The Terrace is clean and comfortable. The view is beautiful. You can take a walk around the lake, or just walk the rose lined side walk.

Very dated property, especially the bathrooms. No restaurant as advertised, no bar. Religious markings everywhere even in the shower. No mention on websites that it’s a religiously owned compound. Uncomfortable beds, loud rattling AC unit in the room. Only good part of the stay was the lake view.

They charged my card $68 for one night's stay, and have not refunded the difference. Staff struggle to check in and check out guests. Hot items at breakfast were cold. Bread had mold.

Lakeside, double queen room
Pros: the view from the room was stunning and the area surrounding the property is nice! Especially the trail around the lake! Cons: Room was dated and unclean. When entering the room, there were dirty towels by the ac unit and the bathroom had dirt coating the bottom of the tub. The paint/seals were dry and cracking around the tub area as well along with rusty fixtures. The sheets had a few light stains as well. Overall: The area is great but would recommend looking for a different place to stay as cleanliness was an issue for the property.

Sunrise looks like a painting!
The place is lovely. I saw probably the most beautiful sunrise I've ever seen from the 3rd floor of the Terrace.
