"This is my favorite hotel by far. It’s such a unique experience, more like a B&B than a hotel. The property is gorgeous and so are the rooms. They’re huge and so unique with little nooks and cool layouts. I’ve stayed a few times now and the hotel manager Bryce is always so sweet and helpful. Great cocktails at the bar and my kids loved the nightly s’mores."
