We enjoyed the beautiful setting and surroundings. Also, we relaxed by the outdoor fire pit and enjoyed the many options of intimate seating for drinks/happy hour. An overall comfortable place...

Very nicely restored hotel

I booked a room knowing my fiancé loves older style homes. The place was amazing! Unfortunately our road trip took longer then planned and we got to the hotel pretty late so we couldn't spend much time looking around the area. Thankfully we got there just before the dining room closed and had the most amazing steak ever. Definitely going to be staying there again :)
