It is a pretty amazing feat of construction. It is huge! It has a good feel and is right on the lake even though you can roam around inside for quite awhile without needing more to do. If you do get board on the inside, walk over to the Glass Cactus which is their bar on the lake which is cool, or take one of their shuttles into the historic Main Street Grapevine area which is pretty neat.
