Great little roadside restaurant and hotel
We had a delicious dinner at the restaurant and then headed upstairs to our nice clean room. Our room faced the road so I was surprised how quiet it was. The bed was comfy, the room well appointed, and the amenities were great. We loved our visit to the cheese store for a scone and coffee. We tasted the cheese and ended up buying some to take home. I’m looking forward to staying there again!

We loved staying here and took advantage of the restaurant and bar downstairs for evenings and the cheese store across street for our morning cappuccinos.

Check in was easy. The restaurant downstairs was noisy until almost 10. The refrigerator in the room made annoying whooshing sounds when it was running but we had stuff in there so I couldn’t unplug it. Overall not the most pleasant stay we’ve had over the last 3 weeks in motels.

Bed was comfortable, lightbulb was out by the bed, not a biggie, and the noise from the trucks outside was Loud. Easy to find, parking was good and could definitely smell the nearby cow pastures.
