The room was very clean. Decor was beautiful while the carpet was clean it was faded and showing its tired. The hotel itself was gorgeous! We had an excellent stay. Absolutely loved the off season pricing as it truly helps us who are retired and on fixed incomes. The breakfast with the eggs, cheesy potatoes, fresh doughnuts were a real hit!

Good trip. We stayed there because of the indoor pool.... Which was closed while we were there. Then we got called several times in the middle of the night, by a ghost caller....hotel staff says they don't know why that happened. Really hope they get that ghost to stop prank calling

This was our first time here. Just passing through to pick up a camper. This property is beautiful! Very very well maintained. Very clean and well kept. May not be modern but everything is very nice and spotless! The grounds are gorgeous with ponds, a walking trail, even a covered bridge. There is an outdoor fire pit that we didn’t get a chance to use but very nice. The breakfast was very good. Waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage, cheesy has browns, cereal and all the normal stuff. Very big eating area. The hotel is beautifully decorated. The bed was firm and comfortable. Rooms were spacious, ours had a patio facing the pond. Nice staff. Would highly recommend!

First time staying here, was only here for one night. It was very clean and comfortable. The pool was open, unfortunately the hot tub was not functioning. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful and good. Lots and lots of places to sit outside of your room, choose comfortable cushion chairs or at tables to play games. Definitely will stay here again.

Our stay at this hotel was great. It was a very quiet place and the breakfast buffet here had a lot of variety and it was very tasty. The country style atmosphere of the place was very calming and appealing. There was a lot to see and purchase in the nearby shops. All in all my wife and I would recommend staying here if you want a good nights rest. We will definitely come back here again.
