Unique Quirky Kind of Place, in a Good Way
This hotel is gorgeous, as are the grounds. It was oddly empty though, both guests and staff. It feels like we were there at the wrong time of year or the wrong era. A bit dated in some ways, but it also feels like it was a top of the line resort at some point. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Really disappointed that the pool and hot tub were closed and will be closed until 2027 per the owner/ manager. He told us they are having trouble finding help.

Remodeling in progress
It looks like they are remodeling due to ladders and other tools around the hotel.
The staff is very friendly and helpful and we got a good night’s sleep.
