Parking can be a challenge. You definitely need a ride into town to shop and eat. The road to the Inn is on 243 and that can be a nerve wracking drive there and back on the mountain roads.

I was under the impression that I was going to be staying in a cabin based on the photos online (Expedia,) so I was not expecting a one-room motel. I still appreciate having a place to stay for the night, but it would really be helpful for future customers if the website would be very specific about the rooms, cottage, and cabin offerings so they know what to expect. I like that there is ample parking and it's pretty close to the village center.

There was some wear and age to the place, but it was also part of what it was as a cottage and everything that I expected. I would definitely stay here again.

Overall experience was good. Check in was easy even though I arrived very late, the gentleman from check in was very helpful and friendly. I appreciated the fact that I was given the room at the end because I had my dog which made it more convenient. The room itself was cozy enough with all amenities but it could use a little more renovating and deep cleaning, Overall though, I would definitely stay here again,

Don’t skip this quaint Little inn! They are kind, accommodating, clean and welcoming. I needed a ride to my friends wedding venue and the owner herself took me. It is quiet and peaceful and a true cabin in the woods. I would definitely return here, even if there was not an event happening.

Very dated motel from the 1950's and on the market for sale now. Sink water just trickled and the staff was not there after hours. Reminded me of Bates Motel in Psycho....

Air conditioner was old. When you walk in the air was just turned on a few prior so you can smell the old rug and wet old conditioner, almost smell like molded room. Shower towels are old, need update. Overall, everything in the room need update.
