Pilot Hill Recreation Area

We did not come in expecting much. We were truly wanting the authentic experience. There were a lot of books in the room, as there is no tv. But, surprisingly not a copy of the Virginian! It would be a small inexpensive touch, and would go a long way to make it special. It needs a lot, it has the history and the namesake. Hopefully the new owners can get it up and running. Have someone checking people in, make sure the room is secure before the guests arrive. I just hope that this place does not fade away, it needs a few small steps to start. If they never get any guests, I do not know how they will survive. We had the one room with a toilet and a bathtub (we chose not to use the tub...). We were the only ones there for the night. The entire building was empty. It was strange in the morning, leaving through the deserted restaurant (the only way in or out), less honest persons could have had a complementary piece of pie, or a free souvenir. The building has the bones, hopefully the new owners can address the holes in the bathroom floor soon, as well as the staffing issues. Strange that you can just wander to the room, which was completely open, with a window full open with no screen. I was surprised there were no critters or birds inside. I would have probably left if I was a single traveler, cause it felt unsecured. All in all, we are happy that we can say we stayed there, before it disappears. Best of Luck!

It was convenient to travel plans, and something new so we gave it a shot. Sadly the pictures lead you to believe there is a pool, there is not. It is being renovated and the A/C had to run all night to keep the temp at 75* in June, it isn't even really hot yet. It is a very old A/C unit. I am sure it will get better but we are not going to stay there on our return trip. There is a hotel just across the parking lot that does have a pool.

So much like a genuine bed and breakfast. Always enjoy meeting new people at breakfast. The owner and staff are great!
