The living room had a nice view of the woods. It was safe, clean, secluded, quiet. It is not upscale, but was overall a good stay. The bedrooms had very comfortable mattresses. There is one air conditioner unit for the whole place, but the first night we put the fan on and opened the window, and that was fine. Staff were nice.
