We had a king room our trip last May 2004. We had previously stayed at CSR in the Ranchos in 2002 and had a double bed room with a view of the small pool in Ranchos. We requested Casitas this trip and were upgraded (maybe a honeymoon perk) to a king room with a waterview on the 3rd floor. I cant say enough about how beautiful our view was-it was an unobstructed view of the lake-from our window we could see the Dig Site, Cabanas section, the lake, and El Centro. It was wondeful. It did seem like lake view.
