The room was damp from the carpeting to the towels. Slight musty smell. We suspect there may have been a flood. No concern when reported to front desk. Have stayed there before but will not be back.

Always a great stay
We have stayed here before. Always great service. We opted for breakfast in the restaurant this time and won’t miss it again! It was excellent. Good food, reasonably priced in a lovely area. Our servers were extremely pleasant. We come to the area every year for blueberries, apples and new finds. I look forward to next year
