Such a super place to stay - clean, quiet, with great staff and surrounded by trees. It's a little oasis away from the buzz of town. Easily walkable to the lake and town.

Perfectly Peaceful

My mom and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. It was peaceful and relaxing, exactly what we needed. The weather was perfect for sitting out on the patio and there was plenty of room for both of us to stretch out and enjoy the amenities in our suite.

The wine and beer options for happy hour were amazing! It felt like you were in the woods away from all the chaos but only a 5 minute drive from the Main Street. Our room was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable!
