9.7 Wonderful
Pros:Not too commercialized feel like very near to nature. We had a good time as we celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary
Cons:The price of food in the restaurant does not match the quality on how it was prepared and presented. We were told to have red potatoes but it was gold. The rice pilaf was saggy. Fresh catch was ridiculously price Salmon was $32.00 but no seasoning
