Not worth what it was advertised as. Mold in the shower, mold on the dishes bugs in the windows, used tissue in the vanity, black plastic spatula burned and fraying (that plastic is very toxic). See photos. Hot tub was nice but I was there for work and only used it once.

Very relaxing fall stay

We are a family that prefers to cook at home. This place actually surprised us with the kitchen appliances and dishes that were available for our use. Apple trees in the front yard were a plus! Two apple pies later!
