Room and bathroom were very clean. They offered to keep fire pit going outside even in December while it was snowing outside, it was already burning when we got there. Staff was kind and welcoming.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel has nice amenities like fire pits and a pool but the bug infestations, strange smells, and dirty rooms do not make the amenities worth the stay. I had to move rooms after a bug issue and the second room was not clean. The floors were grimy, the shower doors had streaks, and the remote for the tv was literally sticky. They also don’t offer room service (which is fine I guess although they do have a restaurant on the property) and the town doesn’t have great options on Uber Eats.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely hotel, and I can't say enough good things about my experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. Their kindness and willingness to help with anything I needed truly set the tone for a wonderful stay. The rooms were immaculate—spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The beds? Oh, they were like sleeping on a cloud! I’ve never experienced such comfort; it felt like I was cradled in pure bliss every night. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. The combination of attentive staff, pristine accommodations, and heavenly beds made for an unforgettable stay. I can’t wait to return!
