Stayed here after a local wedding and didn't want to drive to the bigger cities, it was more convenient to stay here. We were very surprised by how nice the lobby was, how quiet it was, spacious rooms and clean. Probably won't be in this area to stay again but would for sure recommend it!!

Great stay!

My stay was good. Room was clean and comfortable. Everything is done through text so that was a bit different and convenient but at the same time not so convenient when you want to just ask a quick question.

I booked 4 rooms for my staff that were doing a project in the area and they have all raved about how nice the property was. In small towns, we don't always have access to the best accommodations, so they were nervous going into this project about what to expect from this property but all four of them loved it. We ended up needing to call the staff at one point due to two of my staff members forgetting something in the rooms and they were extremely kind and accommodating. Would highly recommend staying here if you are ever in need of a place to stay in the area. Big props to the owners and staff of this location.
