An Avg place to stay
Its a hotel. My first time staying here 3 yrs ago seemed better, but maybe because it was just an overnight. The people are fanastic. There were beer cans outside on the patio, but the room itself seemed clean. The bed was way too hard and uncomfortable, which with how amazingly confortable and cheap you can find mattresses these days on Amazon, I find it crazy that more hotels dont have better beds. The place is super close to a lot of great outdoor adventures though, which is why i picked it in the first place.

A trip to the woods
The biggest problem I had was with my small dog who was fairly frantic the whole time I was there. He didn’t seem to be able to relax at all & wouldn’t go into his crate to sleep. During the night he barked several times for no reason. In the morning I was speaking to a woman working in the grocery store who said there was paranormal activity at the hotel & that animals were more sensitive to it than humans. Although I really appreciated the help I got at check in I was surprised to find that my normally calm dog, who is an emotional support animal, was not able to be the comfort he usually is to me. I will probably not stay here again. I also thought the condition of the hotel, especially cleanliness was substandard.

Wonderful staff! Spacious room and a comfortable bed. We really enjoyed the live music on Friday and Saturday nights while sitting on the balcony. The only problem was the ac kept turning off so we opened the door to the private balcony to cool the room off. Perfect place for a little get away and we will be back.

I’ve never been so pleasantly shocked by staying at a property. When I arrived, they gave me a free upgrade to the king suite. Everything is right there, dining, concerts on the weekends, tattoo shop, you name it. I will definitely be hoping to come back, it’s the best place I’ve stayed! Even when we had a problem with an order in dining, they were very fast to make things right and I appreciate the staff so much!
