This is a nice property that has the feel of getting to stay in a state park. It was quiet and peaceful, almost no cell service so my wife paid attention to me, and it included a free breakfast that was very tasty. Except the county potatoes, something wasn't right about the country potatoes. We would gladly stay here again and if you have kids or grandkids the lack of cell reception could really work out for you.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our cottage was clean except for the outside screen porch, which did not look like it had had the cobwebs cleaned for a while. The property is older, and the decor is however, it was overall a good experience.
