Close up, its clean, curved lines and Mondrian windows make it look like an art school or a fancy new library.
It was certainly quiet as a library in the lobby. We were checking in around 4pm, and there was no one else around.
The lobby lounge area is full of modern leather seating options in brown tones.
The panoramic lake view is spectacular.
The gym is spacious and clean, with the usual treadmills and new-fangled cardio machines.
On the first floor is a reading area where you can learn about the geographic history of the local surrounds and look at cool artifacts. When a hotel has a giant fossil of jaws, you definitely feel like you're in an usual place.
We requested a Lakeview room with a king-size bed. The space was roomy, with interesting views from various angles.
The TV has two sides, with the bed on one side and a sectional sofa on the other,
The bed looked pretty comfy, but later hubby would complain that the sheets weren't soft enough. He also expected that for the price we paid, the room should include a shoehorn and room slippers. At least there were two bathrobes.
The bathroom had marble countertops and high-end toiletries.
The floor and shower walls look like wood but are actually ceramic tile.
Kind of a modern Zen vibe, overall.
The view from the bed offers an excellent view of the sunset. The louvered wooden blinds shut completely if needed.
The bookshelf near the sofa has classic works of literature. Wonder which came first, the custom shelf or the perfectly fitted books?
At dusk, firepits and lights started to appear outside on the hotel grounds.
But hubby and I were mesmerized by the sunset view...
I would recommend staying at the hotel if you're playing either of Streamsong's courses. It's quiet and restful and gives a sense of place. I slept well and awoke refreshed and ready to play Streamsong Red.
