So you're a little bit out of town, but honestly that's what I loved about it. Moons are old. Yes, but they're charming. I absolutely loved my room and side outside in the rain feeding squirrels. It was perfect. I cannot wait to go back and I know exactly which room I'm getting 🙂 there's a creek running right alongside, I had a lovely walk down it, and then pivoted to the restaurant 🙂
