We’ve been using this location for the past 3 summers on our travels to/ from GA -MD. All staff are very helpful, friendly, and courteous. It’s a quiet location and convenient to a good selection of restaurants. I also enjoy using the pool. They honor my request for a room on ground level due to knee issues and stairs.
