The property is well maintained and the staff organized. The county experienced a sudden power shutdown as we arrived and they worked with us as we needed rebooking and welcomed us back warmly the following day. The breakfast was very good. The beds were comfortable and the room was large. Parking was easy. We will definitely stay here again.

Very cool facility and property! We loved the lodge like feel, stayed in the 3 queen/2- bedroom, which was perfect fit our family with kids. Breakfast was awesome, and we had a delicious diner at the restaurant as well. Only reason for 4 stars over 5 was that it was aged. Otherwise, highly recommend!
