Pros (+) Very nice amenities and landscapes, super friendly staff, two great restaurants on site. Nice room, nice spa services and easy 30 min drive to Burlington.
Cons (-) Didn't love the location. It's not in a charming area really - you get off the road to Essex and then it feels like an industrial zone. As you pull in the Essex, you feel like you're in an oasis, but because the surroundings are unappealing, you're limited to whatever is on-site.
