Our overall stay was good and we would stay here again. Our room was spacious and clean, the beds were comfortable. Convenient for walking around town and was nice to sit by the river every morning while having some coffee and at night as well.

Perfection

Our anversary was spent here and it was worth every single penny. What a gem of a place. We rented a cabin and couldnt be happier. The staff was as freindly and accomodating as can be. Our cabin sat on the river and had a patio that overlooked the backyard which was full of bench swings and a fire pit with the river just behind. It was heaven, and if you see a squirel near cabin 2, his name is Ritz, and hes a cracker fantatic. Please tell him we said hello, after, of course, offering him a cracker. 😉

Hotel was walking distance to the town. Room was very clean. River runs in front of the property with swings that you can sit in and watch the tubers come through. Great little spot!
