Location location. This property has such an outstanding view of river, dam, city scape and sunset that it becomes a destination in itself. Comfort bed in nice room with said view. Small breakfast nook with standard continental breakfast fare. Outside seating area with great views. Driveway potholed and jarring. This likely keeps speeds down to the benefit of the homes along the down hill side

The view was spectacular, unbeatable for the price. The area has many breweries which makes for great food options as well as drink. We have always wanted to stay at one of the mid century modern inns along the lip of the gorge, and we checked that box in the most modern, comfortable, clean room we could have imagined.
