Slow service. Get your own drink. . Bar tender could have cared less. Drinks were less than stellar.

Maybe this is a nice place, as costumers say but I am not happy with it. I ordered a glass of wine. It cost $10. The bartender gave me a glass of wine. I gave her my credit card , she charged, and brought me a check $ 18. They didn’t have the wine which I ordered. But she didn’t tell me that. I am upset. 03/ 25/2024 . 10:39 pm

Place was amazing. We had a group of 30 and they made us feel welcome all weekend. The one thing I would like to see is a new drink from Marianna called the Marianna Trench. Gotta add that to the drink menu. Killed it all night for our group! Can’t wait to come back here!

Music was good but because there were several large roudy groups we couldn't really hear it. The large groups got service, after 45 minutes, the husband went to bar to order for us. When we got food it was cold. Guess Saturday nights are not for couples.

Absolutely the worst customer service I have ever experienced -- during the stay, service was certainly lacking (to say the least: for example, we waited over an hour and a half for food to go only to check in at the restaurant to see they'd forgotten about our order) but since checking out it's been unfathomably awful. I left a pair of expensive headphones in my room upon checking out and my husband forgot a few things in the closet (our fault, I know). We realized almost immediately and called the hotel who helpfully promised to ship us the items at our cost. Unfortunately, a couple days later we received the clothes but no headphones. I've called at least 30 times and every person I've spoken to - after sounding utterly confused every time (despite speaking to the same people multiple times about the same issue) - tells me the same thing - they'll call their "shipping department" and call me back before I hear nothing further from them. I can track the decide and see it's still at the hotel. Not sure if everyone working is incompetent, doesn't care, or the product has been stolen. In any event, terrible service. Otherwise, the shooting activity was fun but I would not recommend the hotel. The food is barely edible, the service sucks, and the beds are like cardboard.

We are traveling with our dog and they were very welcoming and accommodating. They also provided a dog bowl for water. We sat on the porch and were able to order pizza or from the fancier restaurant next door. We had pizza and it was quite tasty. The pickle fries were the best we have ever had. Margaritas were very yummy as well.

My husband booked our room through a third party after looking and selecting what we needed off the website. We wanted the Lajitas lookout because we were traveling with our kids in between camping and it had washer and dryer and bunk beds. Upon our arrival my husband checked in and said we were heading to some cottages. That isn't what we booked. They had us in our room then sold it from under us and put us in another. I went up to sort it out and we were put in another house, the hacienda escondida. Important to note as each house seems different and privately owned that the hotel rents out. So not all the accommodations, view and layout was the same. The front was helpful in trying to sort it out. Mind you these rooms were $700 a night. They claimed we were under charged by the booking site, as if that was our fault, as though we should be grateful for the inconvenience and being to stay there at all. Most unwelcoming home. As soon as we walk in almost everything is marked by the owner as not usable by guest. Signs everywhere. Can't use hot tub, can't use jacuzzi tub, can't use fire place..... but thankfully it had heated floors in bathroom which you will need since you can't even shower and have hot water the whole time. I couldn't use the tv, no remote. When I went to find one in another room the batteries were kept in with tape. Such luxury. We have had better accommodations camping under the stars or in the cheapest motel in terlingua. We won't be staying again. Basing the cost versus what you get.

Ordinarily it would be fine but the drunk frat guy yelling kiss my a## for five minutes into his phone out on the patio was real distracting. Glad I dont have kids with me. Seems like language and manners are getting worse and worse. But I guess thats the kind of people businesses want to represent them. Ok, the food was excellent. Service was excellent. The duo band was not half bad.Wheelchair accessibility: Most likely better now they fixed the sidewalks.

They have some good food and a variety of dishes. We were able to order from the menu of the Thirsty Goat and the other restaurants in the resort. I had the venison chops which were very good. Another in our group ordered the pizza, which was soggy in the middle. The drinks were okay but had better in the area.
