We stayed here last minute after leaving our original hotel booking due to the poor conditions. The staff at the desk were very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean. We enjoyed finishing up our Mother Earth beers at the porch swings! We will come back with our kids and get in a game of putt putt!

We were highly satisfied with our stay! We were in town for a softball tournament and if we are ever in the area in the future this will be our goto place for lodging! The design of the rooms took me back to my childhood! The pool/activity area is amazing and wish we would've had time to enjoy it!
