The room was very nice! For the first time we opted to stay in town instead of a rural cabin. It was delightful, especially since the weather was quite rainy and we couldn’t do much hiking! The place was lovely, quiet, and just perfect for a couple or a small family! There’s very little parking but we were always able to find a place when we returned from an adventure! We highly recommend this place!
