Happy Find!

We stayed here after attending a wedding at The Barn in Dunvilla, which is only about 10 minutes away. We called ahead for a late check-in, and they were incredibly accommodating. I highly recommend this place!

The room was nicely updated and very clean. However, there was little to no noise proofing. We heard conversations from all directions until late at night.
