Happy Find!
We stayed here after attending a wedding at The Barn in Dunvilla, which is only about 10 minutes away. We called ahead for a late check-in, and they were incredibly accommodating. I highly recommend this place!

Great location with easy access and parking. Comfortable room and bed. Only downfall is not having a table in the room. Since I was on business I needed a table to set my laptop and work. Plus for eating too. Had to use the bed for work desk and dining.
