Better coffee would be nice. Surrounding grounds could be improved to make property more attractive overall. I wonder if some full service RV hookups out in front might be good utilization of excess space.

Despite the out-dated room, the friendly front desk woman and the fact that it’s big-dog friendly made this place 10/10 for me! Our 2 dogs got “welcome baskets” and there was a fenced dog area on the property. I’d totally stay again and it felt like the owner(s) are building a special place out in Twisp.
