5 star resort with convenience of a motel

Amazing gem - stayed overnight. Amazing room ( deluxe): quality and attention to every detail. Beautiful comfortable bed and pillows, perfect shower, immaculately clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated... To top it off - exquisite dinner at onsite restaurant, definitely on par with top-rated restaurants if not better. One regret - did not stay long enough to try the spa! Friendly and delightful break in a long trip. It is an enthusiastic review, - but we stayed in overpriced motels and this is not it!

Wow just that! Elegant, sophisticated, warm, peaceful and welcoming. Hara House is perfect in every way. Shannon was absolutely amazing and so warm and welcoming. The detail in every aspect of this luxurious accomodation is stunning. You can see how much thought and detail has been put into the style, feel, look and comfort. Also the food & service was amazing , we only had breakfast but can not wait to get back again and try the dinner menu. Thank you for making our stay a 10/10!

The rooms were clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had a hit of tennis and used the free bikes which was a lot of fun. Thanks for having us!

Overrated and overpriced for what it is which is a refurbished motel. All geared around eating at their restaurant. All the staff were very friendly and bed real comfy. You wouldn’t be walking into town.
