Practical hours & payment notes
Hours at each outlet can change for events, seasonality, or staffing; the resort’s concierge or front desk is the authoritative source for day-of-week and holiday schedules. Breakfast surcharge options exist if you choose a full sit-down breakfast instead of à la carte choices.
The resort does not accept cash; you must present a valid payment method at check-in. The mandatory daily resort fee covers pool access and high-speed Wi‑Fi among other inclusions, but it does not cover meals or alcoholic beverages.
- Cash policy: cash is not accepted — have a valid card or payment method on file
- Resort fee: paid per night and includes pool access, Wi‑Fi and select amenities, not meals
- Breakfast surcharge: full breakfast options are available for a surcharge (approximately $19–$28 per adult on third-party listings); verify current pricing with the restaurant
| What to check with concierge | Why it matters |

| Any automatic gratuity or service charges | Spa and some group dining items may carry automatic gratuities |
Dietary needs, kids and group dining
Sixty-Three and the pool/bar outlets can accommodate common dietary requests, but availability varies. If you have allergies or strict dietary requirements, contact the restaurant or concierge before arrival or at check-in so the kitchen can prepare.
Families are welcome at the main dining areas and Back Porch; poolside and adults-only areas retain their age restrictions. For weddings and meetings, the resort offers multiple event spaces with catering options handled by the events team.
- Children: family-friendly seating is available at Sixty-Three and Back Porch; pool rules still apply
- Group events: contact the Meetings & Events team to discuss menus and plated vs. buffet setups
- Dietary requests: give advance notice for allergies or specialized menus to improve kitchen preparedness
Dining tips and best practices
Reserve dinner at Sixty-Three for weekends or sunset seating, and check the concierge for current pool-bar hours before planning your swim-up visit. If you want a specific table with a lake view, request it when you make the reservation.

- Call ahead for dinner reservations at Sixty-Three, especially on weekends or during events
- Check pool-bar hours (Sunset Pool Bar is weather/season dependent and often weekend-focused)
- Ask about children’s menu items or smaller portions if traveling with young guests
- Verify whether automatic gratuity is added to large parties, spa services or in-room orders
