    Our reservation was at 2:00pm but we arrived early thinking we would sit in the bar area and have a drink. They accommodated and seated us right away. Everyone was very polite and helpful. Our Waiter was very knowledgeable and the wait times for drinks, dinner, etc. was very short. Food and drinks were excellent.

    Our steaks were cooked just as we ordered them. The waiter Brian was attentive to our needs, filling cups as needed. Suggested items for us to try and we did. All was very flavorful. Good service and food.

    We had our wedding reception at this location in 1977. A lot has happened over the years. Floods have washed away parts of the golf course, buildings, and parking lots. Children and relatives have worked at the facility. Our church holds its annual Christmas party here. Needless to say, we have strong feelings about this resort and the people who work here. The breakfast menu is a bit sparse but with creative items on tap. If there's nothing to your fancy, ask; they can probably accommodate you. My favorite is the "Chicken and Waffles". All of the dishes are amazingly fresh and big enough to share. Prices are still on the cheaper side, compared to a typical breakfast out. The view of the golf course is serene, with trees, flowers and water features. You have the option of eating in the restaurant, on the back terrace or on the shady side patio adjacent to the full-service bar. The wait staff are amazing, with attentive service. It is rare to have to ask for a refill of anything. That usually only happens when there are several large family groups (be sure to reserve ahead so you won't be disappointed with a long wait). We can't say enough good things about The Red Tail. Try it.
