I have stayed several times at this location while traveling and look forward to staying her again in the future. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I travel with my dog and they accommodate us with a pet-friendly room. There is a grassy area/field next to the property and I appreciate the space to walk and run my pup. My rooms have always been clean. Will definitely be back.

We usually come to this property 3 times a year. It was purchased by a very nice man. Even the employees said he was super nice. As a regular, the transition seemed seamless. Same employees, same great, caring customer service. The breakfast is pretty good too. I recommend the biscuits and gravy. Great pillows and towels. Sad they got rid of the hot tub.
