Hotel recently changed name and appears to be undergoing room renovation. No one at front deck for check in. Call number on door and eventually someone showed up. Did not receive txt or email with check in instructions. Rooms were pretty nice and clean. Comfortable bed, gas fire place. Hotel has lots of potential.

This property is not as pictured. The pictures I booked based off of were clean, white, cozy, wine and cheese in the lobby, and a fireplace in every room...what we got was a lobby with no staff present the whole stay, a room with a deer head over the bed and retro metal patio chair for seating. The fireplace did not work and the only way to turn the lamp off was to unplug it. It was at least clean, but nit what we expected.

Our room had some maintenance issues that need to be dealt with especially for the rate we paid. The lobby was closed and torn apart apparently for remodeling. We were not made aware of this when making our reservation.

So disappointed. While claiming to be a “hotel”, there was no one on site other than cleaning staff at any time. Had we needed something, someone from another property 20-30 minutes away would supposedly drive over. The room smelled like a mixture of moth balls and mold deterrent. The fireplace - a key reason I booked this overpriced room - was out of order. (We were not told this in advance.) The doors, which we were assured would lock automatically, did not lock unless you manually locked the door from the inside and held the handle perfectly still when closing the door, There were shared toiletries in the shower (full size, already open/used). You drive on a muddy gravel road to get to a tiny parking lot. There is a trash can on the porch of the laundry room that attracted a sizable black bear that I encountered when I went to get something from our car. The only positive things I can say was that it was clean, the towels and bedding were a nice quality, and the shower had good water pressure. Maybe it will improve under new ownership.

We went in December and there were many vacant rooms, which made it very quiet. The climate control system in the room was difficult to control. It was either too hot or too cold. Also, the gas fireplace, which is an attractive feature of the room, was not functioning. There was a printed note taped to the fireplace stating the fireplace should not be turned on. Our friends, who stayed in another room had the exact same printed note on their fireplace. The property should have told all of us that the fireplaces were all broken so that we could have made a better choice on where to stay in the area. It was disappointing to pay that much money for a room with a wonky climate control system and a broken charm feature of the room.

Nice place, but reserved because of the fireplace and discovered it wasn’t working and was not offered a partial refund.

nice property. quiet and comfy. only negative: we went to the front desk for our free glass of champagne upon our arrival at 5:30pm and the office was closed for the day, though they had indicated the office was open until 6:00.
