"The room had a nice coffee maker, microwave and mini fridge. They provided really nice towels for the hot tub. And each morning, they provided a brown bag breakfast which included mini chocolate chip muffins, a granola bar, tangerine, water bottle, hard boiled egg and a yogurt. It was great to have some extra snacks to take on our daily hikes. They have a very lovely patio next to the hot tubs with a firepit that they would light on the cool mornings and in the evenings. There isn't always someone at the front desk, so you have to call an extension and they will come help. If you are traveling with a dog, it seems that they keep you downstairs so the dogs don't have to navigate the critter-proof metal stairs. Very pretty place, located a few blocks from the main drag. We walked to almost all our meals out. The end of August, beginning of September was perfect! Cool nights and mornings and beautiful days."
