We had a great weekend. We parked our car at check in and left it there until check out. Everything needed is within walking distance even in winter during a significant snow. JimmyZ Pub had good burgers and service at very reasonable rates. The workers at the Weathervane were very friendly and quick to help with anything. We’ve stayed a few times in different seasons and we’ll definitely return!

Basic cleanness was good. They do a good job of keeping the surfaces and floor clean, everyday. My room was in good condition. Two things I wasn't happy with. The hot tub needs a good maintenance cleaning. I flushed the jets with hot water, 3 times. Frist flush, cleaned out pubic and other hairs, and other objects. Second one, less debris. Third, totally cleaned out. Yellow mold build up around the jets. The AC/heat unit filters need cleaning filters, low flow.
