Room was good, town drink was on golf cart yelling at everyone the night I was there. Restaurant (bar) had good food. Drinks expensive, but served with care. Room had a squeak floor. Bed was comfortable, shower was hard to adjust so it would reach, I’m 5’9 and barely could reach it. Door was a key code lock so that was different.

Staff has washer and dryer on property refused to let us use the dryer. Staff informed us that they had a dryer on property but we couldn’t use it and laughed the bar across the street was way too loud for the thin walls of the tiny amenity. There was no way we could sleep until after 1:30 am the neighbors to our room agreed that the bar was out of control. THE ABSOLUTE WORST stay we have ever had in Steinhatchee

Room was decent, beds comfy and liked having the fridges microwave. Check in was slow and there was additional almost $17 fee charged for what I'm not sure, it is not a resort. Also, no hairdryer. Not a bad stay though. Expensive, but so was other places in area. The last couple hurricanes ticket this area. Maybe less fees if booked directly but not sure.
