Not much to do during off season here. Since, it's a Howard Johnson's you would expect a Howard Johnson restaurant to be there right? Nope. I'm sure during the summer the place is hoping. Other good places around to eat thankfully. Not bad place.

I love it here. I bring my dog and it’s just so easy every time. No stress and the room is always clean and comfortable. I also greatly appreciate the late check-out and early check-in when I have my dog since I am able to get him situated as soon as I arrive. Staff is always so kind and helpful.
