I never saw a person. Never saw restaurant. Outside was in disarray. I was remotely checked in and given a dome via a phone call because the room I had reserved had no heat . There was minimal heat in the dome. There were no towels etc. I checked out the next morning at 8:15. Also had to call a number to check out and had to leave a msg. I requested a refund for my last 2 nights and have never heard back. I emailed the GM and was promised a refund. A week later, I still haven't received it. This was definitely NOT what was represented on Expedia!

At check in, nobody was there and we had to call a lady. First room she put me in had no heat and the second room she sent me to was locked, she had me go back into the main house and told me where to locate all of the keys. Once I located the key I was able to get into the room. The room was nice however the sheets are badly stained the floor didn’t seem very clean either. Also, the on site cafe is only open Tuesday- Saturday which seems silly as people travel on the weekend and would really appreciate breakfast on Sunday mornings.

Orange stains all throughout the bedsheets

The room is a basement suite and smelling. Didn’t mentioned in the online booking details. Microwave is broken. There was some water left in the coffee pot, and I noticed mold-like spots floating on top. It could be mistaken for oil, but it’s more likely mold from sitting water. Staff is nice.

Staff was super friendly and helpful, from the moment I got there, they actually came out onto the cobblestone street to help me find a place to park (they also run a nice Italian restaurant, so the street was full for my Friday night arrival). I stayed in the main building, which had an old-fashioned b&b style to it. All wood flooring, lots of windows, full sized bathroom, fancy king bed. I was there in winter, and that meant my room was a bit drafty upon entering it, but they had enough space heaters to make it feel comfortable rather quickly.

This was such a unique concept that I was really looking forward to. The Glamping dome was spacious and decently appointed. The bathroom is big, the beds were comfortable, and the view was very pretty. However, the heating source was not big enough to properly heat the Glamping dome. We attempted to get a good nights sleep with an inside temperature of 44 degrees. It was awful. I would’ve loved to have warmed up by taking a hot shower, but I didn’t even want to take my clothes off to do that! It was so incredibly cold that I had to turn the heat on in my car and sit until my hands we are warm enough and flexible enough to be operable. I would’ve liked to of shared this with the innkeeper in the morning, but when I went to return my key, there was no one at the desk. I would really like to request some compensation for this very uncomfortable inconvenience. The Glamping dome was advertised as being heated. I do not consider 44° as he heated. I strongly request a refund on the room. I look forward to your reply.PLEASE SEND THAT TO THE FOLLOWING EMAIL: dfwright27@gmail.com

I dont usually leave reviews. I always read them, so I know their value. Ive struggled for the past month about leaving this review. I feel this needs to be said. We booked this place for our mother/daughter birthday. We always try to do at least one thing every trip that we've never done before. We booked the "glamping" room. We arrived by 6:30pm.The gentleman was just leaving, but he inconveniently showed us our unit. I will say the ser up was really cool.Temperatures were to plummit this night. We put our things in the unit and left to eat. When we returned, it was freezing in unit. The heater was above one of the beds, so I went to adjust the heat while my daughter took a shower. No hot or warm water for her. We also had dirty sheets and a dirty towel in between sheets. Disgusting! Long story shortened,the heater did not work. It only blew cold air and the remote needed for it, had dead batteries. I immediately called them and got their answering machine.(this is about 8 to 830 pm) I left a detailed message...we have no heat, it is now in the 20s outside and would they please come fix the unit or move us to another. We put on all our clothes along with our winter coats and every blanket. We called for 2 hours with no response. It appeared they blocked our calls.Who treats their paying guest like this? We could not sleep there. We still have never heard from them.No apology, no refund, no customer courtesy! Not a Word! I would NEVER stay there!! Look elsewhere to sleep!

I want to give this property a great rating, but unfortunately, because of the condition of the Rain Song Room, I cannot. Cobwebs on the ceiling, moldy shower curtain, coffee cups that had been used and a pull-out couch mattress that couldn't be used = unacceptable. BUT, I'd still be willing to try one of the clamping domes or the main house, so that says something about the parts we did enjoy.
