This was the third year we stayed at the Archer (formerly The Lorien). The new owners don't seem as focused on customer service. We stay here because they have large rooms with sitting areas. Beyond that, we'd choose someplace else. The fire pit is great for enjoying a glass of wine, but dirty glasses sat around for hours, and the lemon water was empty every time we went to grab a glass of cold water.
