We have stayed here last summer and it was great. My only issue was the mattress in our room was a little too hard for mine and my husband's comfort. The owner and her family are super nice and sweet. Rooms are clean and plenty big that your not banging around against walls and the showers have hot water and great pressure! Already booked our room for next years week long county fair!

Great place to stay!

We have stayed here a couple of times. The family running this establishment are amazing. The wifi is a little wonky. But it is clean, the beds are comfy and they are continuously improving the property.

Hair dryers are no longer available in the room. We had to go get towels for the room. Shower had no hot water. Had to put on the new roll of toilet paper when we first got there. We have stayed here before and had a good experience. This time was a deal breaker. Maybe it changed hands? We won't go back again.
