Another great stay at Brookside for us! We love coming here in the winter to just get away in one of the honeymoon suites. Relaxing in front of the fire in a clean and spacious room is a delight. We will make it back here one of these days in the summer to enjoy the pool!😀

Beds were comfortable. The room was a little worn in some areas and smelled of woodsmoke from the fireplace, but it was clean, and the bathroom appeared recently renovated. The balcony overlooking the creek was lovely, though the chairs needed a pillow to be tolerable. Breakfast was great with lots of delicious options. And the free trolley stops right in front of the hotel.
