The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice and attentive. The only complaint was that on Saturday night we had difficulty finding parking due to the restaurant using the same parking as the hotel. But other than that it was great!

This entire place was great. There’s nothing fancy. It’s simple it’s relaxing it’s clean people were great the fire pits were lit the hot tub was running. I didn’t use the hot tub out side in the snow but the people in there seemed to be having a great time. Since there will be a next time I’ll definitely try that out.
