This was the cutest little mom & pop place. It reminded me more of an air b-n-b though, you’re more on your own (there was not a daily house keeper), BUT the office/convenient store on site gave us what we needed when asked (towels etc.). You also are allowed to go to the office/ convenient store after 7am to get free coffee, cappuccino, hot chocolate etc. My family really enjoyed staying here and will return when we are in town, if we need a place to stay.

Nice room for reasonable rate. Outdoor deck, porch and general store were nice amenities. Front desk closes early, so be sure to call ahead for arrangements if you have an evening arrival.
