The inn was simple and rustic. but with the modern options we needed (like air conditioning and a hidden TV). Having the restaurant downstairs was great, both for a late night dessert order and breakfast before we left. We would love to come back!

For the money spent I feel the room was not to power. I stayed at a state park which I had a very large room and a larger TV. The state park was half the cost, for the same nights stay.

Quiet

Overall, stay was good. Early check-in is not available. Inn is older. Corners were dusty, but bedding was clean. The lighting in the bathroom is very dim, making it hard to put on makeup. Staff was friendly.

For the price, I thought the room was barely adequate. The TV had very limited choices. A room coffee pot was available, but not automatically there. Breakfast was no longer included in the price. Struck me as stingy.
