Great location . Conveniently located to the biggest attractions yet still tucked away in a more quiet location away from the hustle and bustle . Love the creek in the front and like how it separates from the hotel from the Main Street. Decent priced and clean and everything was perfectly fine.

The staff was amazing. :) the room not so much. Very simple and run down. Only one mirror in the whole room and that’s in the bathroom. So if you travel with a family it’s not easy to get ready. The beds were clean and for the price it was over all good.

We got a call from the property the day before asking us to switch rooms. We had booked 2 queen beds. They said it would be an upgrade to a king with a fireplace. Upon opening the room door their was a smell of cleaner. Could not get rid of it with both doors open to air out. Our bathroom was so small that only 1 person could be in there. Yes, there is a creek running in front of the hotel, but with the main road right there we could hear traffic all night. This hotel really needs updating. We were expecting a cozy room with the cabin vibe.
