The grounds and building were breath taking. The food, when it finally arrived was delicious. Robert, Josh at the Foley Grill have great personalities and save the pool area from disaster. Even Tyler the young man taking care of towels was charming. Jim the waiting in the main restaurant was awesome. Shani at the bar was amazing and made decilous drinks. Everyone else needs to be retrained in 5-star hospitality!
Other Comments
Most of the staff needs to be retrained. they all claim to be a 5-star location but the service is more like 2-3 stars which was extremely disappointing. This resort has so much potential but if you read the reviews, the same negative issues keep happening so management either doesn't care or just not dealing with it properly. The TZ booking package said we'd get soft drinks and snacks. We received water and snacks were not replenished daily. We would also receive complementary valet parking however, there was nobody there to greet up. After wait for a few minutes, my wife and I decided to go inside. Even the tall gentleman at the front desk didn't greet us warmly. We drove 6+ hours to get there and he knew it but yet there was zero conversation. He didn't even show us where the elevator doors were.
After checking out our room, we went to the pool at 3:45 to grab something quick to eat and were told at the Foley Grill that they were sold out of all food but offered us free potato chips. Next thing Robert at the grill comes over to announce, "Last call" Foley's grill is losing out on so much money and their business model is flawed. After last call we went to the bar inside and Alexis the bartender gave my wife attitude becasue she couldn't make up her mind with an extensive special drink menu. When we decided to go back to the room, Jeninne, I beleive her name was gave us our check and it was for $86 for 2 drinks. I noticed "Guest served" said 5 people so I knew it wasn't our. I politely told her this couldn't be our check, she grab the folder and worked at the register. She came back and tossed the check back to me, never apologized, not a word. Dinner was delicous, Jim the wait was excellent, however dinner service too 2+ hours, which meant there had to be issues in the kitchen. Jim kept apologizing and I respected that.
The next day we asked Victoria the concierge about things to do in the area because they were predicting the next 2 days of terrible rain. He first recommendation was to go see Christpher Nolan's, The Odyssey. What??? I can do that at home! Then she suggested driving around the lake in the rain. Sorry terrible ideas. Later that night we went to Fratello's for dinner and Grace the waitress wrote down 12 fun or entertaining things to do in the rain. She was spot on!
After the visit with the concierge, I went in asking for a table for a quick breakfast. The hostess told me there's a 30 minute wait. I looked and there were 8 empty table in the restaurant and the bar area empty and nobody sitting and waiting. I asked about the empty table and she said they're waiting to fill them. I had flashbacks from the night before and just left and went to Dunkin and brought back breakfast.
Again we tried Foley Grill poolside and were told they were out of Pina Colada mix and didn't know when they'd be getting it. Also, they had nobody to cook on the grill, so just sandwiches available. I asked Josh to contact the GM or owner immediately and I would offer the next 3 hours grilling for the resort. He didn't take me seriously, which I was totally. Again, Foley Grill is so mismanaged and losing money by the minute. Listening to couples and families complain poolside is not a pleasant environment.
Our 3rd an final night, we ate at the restaurant and dinner rolls took 50+ minutes to arrive at our table, that came with our hot apps. Oh and they charge you for dinner rolls which Farm Italy is the only other restaurant I know that does this. The rolls are not that great and were luke-warm. Again, issues in the kitchen. Farm Italy rolls are outstanding and huge - they come right out of the oven. I have no problem being charged for that.
Lake Estate charges a boatload of money, their grounds and buldings are 5-star but everything else is 2-3 stars, sorry. Most of these issues have happened before if you carefully read the reviews. They claim growing pains and finding their way but it's now 11-months. Stop with the excuses! They had a summer month last August to see what peak season would be like but yet there's no improvements, which has me more disappointed more than anything.

Please provide addl large umbrellas around the pool chaise lounges.
Please do a better job keeping beach sand out of the pool.
Can you add a couple of "kayaks made for 2 people"?

Everything about this hotel is special - from the moment we arrived until we left, the staff was very friendly, accomodating and helpful. They easily moved us to a lower room with a covered deck as the forecast called for rain. The food at the bar and restaurant is outstanding! The experience at the spa was also first rate.

We had a fabulous time at this remarkable resort. Everything was just as you could hope it would be. The staff were amazing and every one of them were striving to make the experience outstanding. The owners of this resort have done an excellent job of creating what they were after, a Grand Old Hotel Resort.

The hotel was amazing. Beautiful property inside and out. Right on the lake. The rooms were decorated very nicely and had beautiful high ceilings appx. 10 or 11 foot ceilings. The grounds were impeccable the infinity pool overlooking the lake was wonderful. The kids had a great time going out on the kayaks and canoes provided. They even have an intimate lower level theatre that has nightly movies. Truly a great place to stay with very friendly staff. Overall we had a Wonderful stay. Would 100% be back next year.
