I just wish they would have had a microwave in the room so we could heat up our food. It was crazy hot in the daytime so I would have liked for them to have an ice machine and for the pool to be opened. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and beds were comfortable.

We were disappointed that there was no breakfast available, no food service available, and no bar service available the whole time we were there. The fire ring was broken in back so only one worked in front. The complimentary smores were very nice. Really cute lobby and nice place to relax. Nice location.

Has a hiker’s vibe. Nice large tv. Excellent bar with small Mexican menu & breakfast in the morning. The only problem I had, I couldn’t increase room temperature to something more comfortable. It seems to have been pre-programmed to 69.
