The view was spectacular, unbeatable for the price. The area has many breweries which makes for great food options as well as drink. We have always wanted to stay at one of the mid century modern inns along the lip of the gorge, and we checked that box in the most modern, comfortable, clean room we could have imagined.

pretty basic. 1 plastic cup, one paper. Had to put my own TP in the roll. Asked for a view- and had to sit in a stiff dinning chair just to enjoy it. no freezer in the friend. deep pot holes coming up thr very narrow driveway. We had stayed before and it was lovely with fresh flowers, wine, and the bed was lined up with a great view. the ice maker didnt even work. it was just lsad looking. the pool was brown.
