It is a very nice, clean hotel. Everyone was friendly and it was busy. We went to a concert and I am going back in 2 weeks for another one. It is a great little town, but dead on Sundays. Everything is closed.

Return customers!

Always a great experience, top to bottom! A group of 3 or 4 of us come each summer to visit the flea market and shops downtown. We always look for to our clean comfortable room and pool, hot tub, and fire pit to relax by, after a long day of shopping and walking in the heat. The exceptional breakfast is always a treat to wake up to as well. First class establishment and I highly recommend!!
