We stayed here at The Crow’s Nest last year in June, and had a great time. The king suite was the only thing available anywhere for the 4th of July weekend this year, so we booked it. The room was extremely clean with lots of room. The bed… OMG so comfortable! I noticed they had the protective mattress on which is a huge plus. The jacuzzi tub was the best part! This is our new favorite place for the price and location.

This place was a quick one night stay, and honestly I was pretty grateful. The check in was the hotel next door, that was fine. The grounds were ok, but the room upon entering had a bit of an odor. The room was clean, but the comforter was dated and old & the pillows were small. Both my husband and I bought ice because the ice room had an odor as well. Make this a quick overnight but not a destination stay. They were pet friendly which was very helpful.
