    Either a short stop on the road or a stay as starting point for excursions. A hidden gem. More family home than hotel, staff was very nice and helpful, breakfast beat everything else we experienced on the trip, great coffee (a decent plus!) and...

    The windows, location, very clean, the shower was awesome, and the friendly cat that made itself at home and snuggled up on the couch. Great experience and would highly recommend.
