Key Review Excerpts
“Staff are very friendly and compassionate, Great location, beautiful views of mountains and the lake”
“The woman who took me on it was beyond rude; defensive and hostile; I felt unwelcome. I am in a lot of pain when I walk so I can't walk fast at all, but she walked very fast leaving me far behind; impatient that I didn't keep up with her pace.”
