it is on the fourth floor of a beautiful view that encompasses the golf course a small lake the mountains and the sun said if you’re dining at dinner. The chef has a limited menu of classic choices of prime, beef, salmon, as well as diverse scallops. .. Because you are eating at a fine dining restaurant in Utah, remember that alcohol is served in smaller quantities than other states. The menu is quite good and I enjoyed the diver scallops in a sauce that was made from a lobster reduction along with broccoli and Snow peas. I asked to have the broccoli replaced because broccoli to me has a scent that would overwhelm the sweetness of the scallops. I think the chef could have done a light dusting of rice flour on the scallops which were served beautifully, but did not have that brown beautiful score from being sautéed and butter with the rice, dusting of rice flour. They are building their clientele with some classic dishes, including prime, cut of steak and salmon and other pleasant dishes.

Although I suspect this will be marvelous when it’s completed, it is not close to being completed. Positives: 1) golf course was lovely 2) staff is delightful (however they are understaffed, but the ones that are there are fantastic.) 3) Rooms are beautiful and will be great when finished Negative: 1) It does not feel like luxury but is charging luxury prices. 2) they put us in a room in the middle of a construction zone. Construction above us (painting the unit above, workers wearing masks and bunny suits so when we walked outside on our outdoor seating there were pain fumes and noise.) 3) there was no walking path to the main building (which is where the pool, the gym, reception, the restaurants, and the pro shop all are). To get there you had to walk through a busy street with massive cement mixers rebar and large machinery etc is all set up and working. My son tripped on stray rebar just trying to get to the room. 4) they say they will pick you up on golf carts so you don’t have to walk through the construction, but each time we tried to organize that no one ever showed up (three separate times, I suspect this is just because it is so new and they are understaffed and disorganized.) 5) the spa is accepting people but also is not finished. Steam room and hot run still under co struction. Again staff are as delightful and massages were great, but it seems like it’s not ready to be open. 6) in our room the internet didn’t work for a day, there was an electrical door that would not latch and other smaller details that I suspect would naturally be resolved if they waited to take guests when co struction was actually completed. Take home: 1) this will be a fabulous place when it’s completed. Wait at least 1-2 years before coming. Photos enclosed
