If you are looking for a unique property while visiting the area we would recommend this property. The owner and property manager were incredibly attentive and welcoming. They were very communicative from the moment booking was made until we checked out. Bed was comfortable, we selected a room with a patio, there are only two that have that option at this property and would highly recommend selecting one of those rooms. They are very generous when it comes to dollar allocation to provide breakfast at one of three local establishments. If you like boutique style hotels, then you should check this one out!

Beautiful hotel, can't wait to come back!

Amazing experience! We stayed in the cottage, and it was just beautiful. The bed is comfortable, and the cottage is very quiet. They have a Keurig with assorted coffee and tea (regular and decaf). I look forward to staying here again!
