Nice rooms. Great location and used to be a great place to stay. Requires wearing masks. Staff not properly trained to wear masks nor do they require a child behind counter to wear one. Masks are for sick people and the vaccinated, non vaccinated pose zero risk to anyone. Pull your head out of your butt and use common sense you hopefully used all your life before you decided to listen to cnn for your medical advice. I hope this place closes its doors for good if they continue to discrimination and segregate natural immunity pure bloods.

At the cheaper rates this place is definitely worth it. The hotel room is old and outdated, and The room is kind of gave up a crack den kind of vibe. They have a pretty great dog policy and nice outdoor areas. There’s a nice campfire place and a place fenced in for dogs to run around. But I paid $320.87 for one night. And there’s no reason that the hotel room should’ve been that much. $200 maximum.

To start off the floors were disgusting. We were there maybe an hour when I noticed my daughter's feet were black. I thought maybe they got dirty from her running around throughout the day so I washed them. She ran around in the room and tried to get on the bed and her feet were black again!
The chair in our room was broken (the arm of the chair came off when I tried to get up and the recliner wouldn't go back to normal after being reclined.
The only reason I'm saying it was okay was because the room "seemed" to have a clean bed, which was comfortable and the bathroom was cleaned up. The room

Our stay was unexpectedly perfect! Right from the start we were impressed with the layout of the property. There's plenty of parking for each room, and no need to worry about not being able to park nearby. There's basically a spot in front of each room. The gardens are absolutely lovely! Very well thought out, maintained, and cared for. Our favorite thing about the stay was the firepit!!! It was awesome being able to sit around a campfire and share travel stories with other guests. The double room we had was shockingly spacious!! Lots of room to spread out and not feel cramped. I also love that

Good rates for the room, friendly staff and clean rooms, although a bit dated. Our first evening they were working on the room right next to ours. After a bit of banging and hammering the noise finally stopped by nine 🕘 o'clock or so. It's good to see them working on the rooms and bringing them up to date.

I would give this place five stars but I feel like the management pulled a fast one on me.
They present themselves as pet friendly and the do have a nice little enclosed dog park. What they don't tell you when you're booking online, is that they charge an additional $12 per pet, per night fee when you check in.
Otherwise, the staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and nicely remodeled.
Would probably stay here again but will search for other places first and will definitely call the properties first to see if they have additional charges for pets.
