We would likely stay again due to location and views.
Pros:

Did not eat there,but the morning hot chocolate/coffee stations were a great idea and we did enjoy a cup on our way out. The firepit was enjoyable and the outdoor patio type area was beautiful. We were able to watch fireworks across the lake at night.
The pillows were nice and comfy and we had enough to sleep well. My husband also enjoyed the chocolates left for us- another nice touch you don't generally see.
Plenty of parking around the building.
Enjoyed the framed items and artwork running the walls. Nice visual.

Cons:

I felt the staff was a bit stiff and snooty at the front desk. Also there was a wedding or gathering going on and the band played quite late making it difficult to sleep.
The garden areas were unfinished edging the waterside . They were like open pits. Didn't match the meticulous grounds and setting. Would have made sitting in the adirondack chairs watching the waterway a bit nicer.
Hallway had a musty seawater like odor as you walked through.

Beautiful resort, would definitely stay again.
Pros:

We had a river view which was excellent. It overlooked the hotel courtyard which had the outdoor seating for the restaurant and also two firepits to gather around. The boardwalk is right outside the courtyard gate. The hotel itself is beautiful, clean and the staff is great. Location is right on the edge of Clayton, so walkable to everything.

Cons:

Couple things i thought were odd for a 4 Diamond Hotel: No in room safe for valuable; no fan in the bathroom to keep the steam down; when sitting in the courtyard, no one comes around to see if you would like a drink; and the elevators were the worst. One elevator would just stop working altogether (they only had two). Something about the hydraulics getting too hot due to number of people using them. Hydraulic elevators, according the maintenance man, are not that common and have lots of problems. On top of that they were very slow.

Exceptional stay watching and experiencing the St Lawrence river in the summer.
Pros:

Had a room facing the river with a balcony. Outstanding experience to show my partner some aspects of river life. The sunsets were wonderful to watch from the balcony as well as drinking morning coffee.

It is a beautiful hotel with an amazing location. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained.
Pros:

We were in an inside room that faced the parking lot. Looking back now, I would have preferred a waterfront room.

Cons:

I thought the breakfast prices were high compared to some of the local eateries.

Lovely
Pros:

The grounds, the restaurant was terrific and the entire property was very clean.

Cons:

The bathroom was designed to be Handicapped accessible, which I needed but the Shampoo and conditioner were too far away from the shower head and there wasn’t a place to put the shower handle held nozzle and use your soap and shampoo at the same time. The nozzle rest was too high for my 5 foot frame because I don’t use a wheelchair and standing it was hard to use the shower.
