The room was clean. Had everything they advertised. This is an older model, so keep that in mind. Room was on the back side, very quiet. Air conditioning just barely adequate for the room, although it was very hot, in the upper 90s. Bathroom very small, but it had a good shower. Overall, this place was OK. Price was very reasonable compared to the other places in the area.

I really liked the back yard landscaping ie; fire pit setup. 2 gazebos with 2 outdoor grills each very spacious . I noticed that the pool however was very small . I didnt like being charged double due to an event in the area, especially since the MAIN EVENT didnt even occur due to little wind. GREAT GALENA BALLOON FEST / RACE/ GLOW ?????

The room was hot and musty. The sheets were gross, as if they were dirty and sweaty. They charged us a pet fee but never told us there was one. Avoid this property.

Fantastic find

What a nice little treasure! It is surprisingly inexpensive for the area, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The room was extremely clean, there were no lingering weird smells, the beds were comfy, and the pillows were above average. I stayed in the back and the picnic areas and fireplace seating were a bonus!

Great location next to busy road but wasnt too loud. I got placed in room 25 which had two stink bugs crawling on the wall and I couldn't shower or brush my teeth due to sink AND shower water reeking of sulphur and rotton eggs. It made the whole bathroom stink. The lady at front desk was short and not helpful.
