Very pretty. Room service was very slow. I paid for dogs on the reservation, would have been nice if the beds and bowls were already in the room.

Beautiful comfortable spacious rooms!
Beautiful property and so much space. We did the horse show for the first time and loved the hotel. The pool area and outdoor fireplace was so nice! Comfortable beds! Great channel selection, wet bar w the mini fridge was so helpful for the weekend. The maid staff even found an item I left behind and communication through text made it easy to find out lost items. We will definitely stay here frequently!

The property is beautiful but the guests are loud, the lights are bright but the hallway is so bright it bleeds into the room at night. It would be better if the hotel dimmed the hallway from 11 pm to 6 am to remind guests that people may be sleeping. Cleaning staff are friendly and helpful. The property offers a great dog park but clients don't always bother to bring their animals there. Hotel was very pleasant, but heated pool was unavailable.

There should be a bus traveling from one hotel (Riding) to Equestrian. Having to use a car or uber is ridiculous. Hotel is amazing. Staff was great.
