This is country living. There is little opportunity for food within this small community, unless you are a late riser. Modern facility.

Very quaint and cozy room. The water pressure in the shower alone rates a 5 star review! My only complaint was lack of WiFi which would have been great in an area where I barely get 1 bar on my phone.

Looking for a quiet, hometown place? This is it. Don’t expect cell service and there are no land lines so that was spooky. The people were friendly, the hike was beautiful. Carry a sound fan or machine because the walls are thin.

There was a small difficulty with a noisy neighbor in the hotel. A phone call to the lodge resolved the problem immediately.
