Perfect for families! The puttputt and playground were large and fun and there were comfortable picnic tables for eating outside, enjoying the weather and the stunning view. The rooms were VERY large! We had a double queen and while you could tell the hotel is undergoing renovations, it was nice, quiet and comfortable. The updates that were going on lead me to believe that as nice as it is right now, next year will be even better.

We had an issue with a bad smell in our room likely caused by an old air conditioner. Owner was alerted and she moved us to another room which was fine. Rooms are very clean but basic. No frills but very reasonable price. Owner very friendly and helpful.
