The hotel is very cool with a great bar/entertainment area for families with kids. We traveled with two kids and they gave us a handicapped room with a very badly designed shower. Nozzle didn’t swivel so when kids showered, the bathroom floor got flooded. Very frustrating. That was really our only gripe. Other than that our stay was fantastic. Highly recommend this property.

The property didn’t look like much from the outside but when you step inside it has almost an old Hollywood vibe with velvet chairs and wood flooring - it’s hard to put into words. The staff were incredibly upbeat and friendly and I loved that they wore overalls, it gave to an outdoor lodge feel. The bar area was amazing and they have a game room with pool and foozball. Really two game rooms because there was a second area where people could grab a board game and play. Outdoors there were a few fire pits you could sit around, along with a pool & hot tub and even a large open lawn. The room was clean and had everything you would need. The room felt a bit dated but that was okay as we really were only in it to sleep. I think for the price charged this place was well worth the money and exceeded my expectations. I would definitely stay here again.

The staff wasn’t very helpful - asked for the fire pit to be turned on and was told no. Asked the front desk if the fire pit could be turned on and they said I don’t know. It was 4pm and chilly, we had just gotten drinks at the bar and were sitting outside. The Nordic Sauna experience was pretty cool, we really enjoyed that. The rooms were average. Great location. Cute bar and sitting area. Overall the experience at the hotel was average - would not return.
