We loved our stay and our spacious room. Everything spotless and comfortable. Only drawback is how expensive it is to have meals onsite, and know before you go there is no mini frig or coffee maker in rooms. The onsite massive swimming pool and movie theater were great!

Beautiful property and friendly staff. Unfortunately the Pool was closed and our rooms A/C was not working on a 90 degree day. It was still over 80 degrees in the room at 3am. The hotel staff was kind enough to offer us fans for the room.

Pool is amazing. Kids had a great time. Room service is only available for breakfast, and this location does not have a hot tub, but none of that took away from the awesome experience.

This was our first visit to this property and checking in on a Sunday revealed that the local community loves this place for both the bars and the pool. Parking was scarce and the place was packed. The owners are definitely pushing a garden/shrubbery/tree vibe, but it's to a point that signs for buildings are obscure. Our second night proved to be a different experience as the crowds diminished. So sitting next to a wood burning (oak!) fire was totally possible. We loved the room for both the high ceiling and decor that is devoted to history. The hallways are also adorned with historical figures, but the low lighting makes it challenging to peruse. Rooms are not equipped with a coffee maker or fridge, the nudge being that they want you to use room service or the dining facilities. We checked out the movie theater and were impressed that it was showing a first-run movie plus there is a bar on site.

Everything was great and loved the vibe and feel of everything. The only critique I have is the food at the Tavern, which is the only place we ate. It was very bland so that was disappointing. And looking at the reviews for the other restaurants at the hotel were mediocre so we didn’t want to try it. Overall It looks like it’s a very family/kid friendly place with a gigantic pool. The fire pits in the center of the property is nice to have. If you’re not a huge foodie, then this is a great place
