We loved our stay! Perfect location, pretty hotel, hot tub was very nice, front gardens with chairs and fire pits to use in the evening were a nice touch. We ate at 1852 Grill and the Ice House BBQ and the food was great as was the atmosphere! Perfect weekend getaway. On the edge of town so it was quiet but still close to walk to Main Street activities.
