I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the views overlooking Bison Valley were absolutely stunning, and the complimentary yoga and guided walks were nice touches, several aspects of my stay fell short. The food wasn't great, and I was disappointed with the extra beds provided for my family in the villa. Overall, it's a decent place to visit, but I think they have some room for improvement.
