I liked the location, price, and the word cozy came up a lot in past reviews and the guest book on the fireplace. Rustic came to mind, the fixtures were a throw back in time, from the outlets to plumbing. Don't get me wrong I would definitely stay again. I like camping and the small town. I would rate the staff but never had a one single contact with anyone, you are texted a code for your door and that's it. Prepaid, no early in or late out. A big guy would have trouble navigating in the shower and bathroom. I'm 6ft and 180 and it was tight. No microwave to heat up leftovers. If the staff reads this, someone dropped a cap down the sink drain, I would've removed it if I had my tools, and a tiny pin hole leak in the shower hardware in the Pinion cabin. Other than that, the stay was great. Hopefully I can return. Nice decor and warm atmosphere after being outside for days.

We went there several times throughout the years. I bought a dozen every time we went there. It’s been great. Plenty of rest just lots to do shopping. I have candy stores in regular stores everything there it’s nice and everything is in within walking distance.

Mattresses are old and uncomfortable. Old decor that is worn out. Slow service for more towels and heater repair. Messy repairs that need to be replaced and done properly.

Minor issues, still great.

I’ve stayed in every room of this property over the years, including this one multiple times. It’s a great property. The rooms are quaint and well appointed. The check in process is simple, but I do miss having someone around at the property during the day when things arose like the lighter for the fireplace being empty (had to go to the store to get one myself) or there not being a corkscrew (which has always been in each room prior). The heater, for some unknown reason, also decided to not kick on during the first night and my room was 46 degrees when I woke up! Worked fine the second night. I will continue to stay here, it’s still the best property in town in my opinion.

Nothing spectacular to report besides they could do a little better. We understand it’s off season but the quality of care was not present. Holes in the towels and bed sheets, out of date kitchen plus the hand written label for the conditioner and shampoo. Not what we saw in the pictures on the ad.
