"I screwed up my reservation, and they helped accommodate me which was appreciated. We had two rooms for 3 nights. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Everything worked, beds were comfortable. No bugs and I would stay here again. Pool is closed off and won't be opening but this is not an issue for us. The only issue I had was the sign in the breakfast area that said we couldn't take the food to our rooms. I asked if I could take my food to my mother's room since she is 84 and was told yes. What I noticed is that everyone took their food to their rooms and ignored the sign. Would stay here again in the future."

"Our accessible room was clean and comfortable. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom was clean & spacious allowing plenty of space for my husband to easily move around with his walker. Breakfast was a very pleasant surprise as there was more selection than I had expected. We did not use any of the amenities - but noted the pool & hot tub were closed for maintenance until the end of August. The staff was exceptional - very professional, friendly, helpful, pleasant. We will definitely stay here again & highly recommend it to others."

"What a lovely place - only to be outdone by the lovely and welcoming hosts. We found that the Waze directions led us fairly close to the house, which may be easier than trying to read the (in retrospect) clear directions from the welcome guide.there is a sign out in the front of the property so once you get near you should be able to find it."
