Katie Belle/Cattle Baron: "Upscale" (?!) Not at all surprised it closed, was never impressed. In fact, Cattle Baron in 2004-2005 was our Worst. Dining. Experience. Ever. Brought relatives there for an expensive dinner and my food came out raw, waitress was totally rude, and got zero satisfaction from manager. Paid way too much for a meal that had to be sent back twice and still inedible. Never went back. Good riddance.
Around that time frame, the buffalo and the only indoor lap pool were taken away from us. Those losses were a bummer! It was just the beginning of the downhill slide. TV is more like a cross between Stepford and The Dome, than Disney World for seniors. Oh wait, it still has similarities to Disney: Everything is way overpriced for what you get, which is standing in long lines to get into anything or shut out entirely due to capacity crowds. No thanks.
Sorry I had to vent, but I've given up even trying to use amenities since around 2015. I've paid off 2 entire freaking bonds and now stuck with a third, so yeah, no, I am definitely NOT getting my money's worth.
Okay, rant over.
