Destination Geneva National

Destination Geneva National

10/10 Excellent
"The location was beautiful but unsure of functional amenities as it was so far removed from the main location of the amenities themselves. I stayed in the Treetop location and I'm not sure there was any other tenants during my stay. Only staff I saw (by choice) was the gated security guards and the individual who checked me in. If you want the amenities accessible I would advise the other site within Destination Geneva National, I believe referred to as the Lodge. Wonderful room, bed, bedding, etcetera regardless of add on pieces being less available. Note my stay was uring off season for the golf course itself."
