Beautiful heritage house, I booked it last minute to get off the road in a snow storm.Minor irratence that the room wasn’t made up at 5:00, but I hadn’t given much notice. While it is period correct the claw foot tub just isn’t as functional as a modern shower. The rest of the house is like stepping into a time capsule. It would be a lovely place to check out in fall.

I thought the property was nice. The area was quiet and safe. Parking to the location is a little bit of a hassle if you get there later in the evening.

It was a very comfortable room and quiet. The location was cute and peaceful. Really appreciated the bottles of water on each side of the bed, which was nice to see after all the travel.

The resort is beautiful, very well managed, and very clean. The owner of the establishment is wonderful. Customer service is excellent. The only down side is the quite loud lumber mill across the river with machinery that runs 24/7.

We enjoyed our stay in the River suite. We could see the river from the porch and enjoyed a quick walk to the beautiful river. We played a few games of jumbo yard sized Connect Four, and lounged in the hammocks. Would stay again. Thank you.

Not what I expected in a small town. This is a well thought-out place with very nicely thought out rooms. We stayed in the Lake room. (no lake view) But it was quiet, the bed was comfortable, nice bathroom with soft towels, with a nice deck over looking the woods. The restaurant has great food. The grounds are beautiful. Highly recommend it.
