Property was a historic hotel. Main building was charming with hotel rooms, restaurant, bake shop, patios, gazebo, event venues. There were also motor lodge buildings that we’re very old and in need of renovation. This is where my room was.

Would stay again for location.

Room was outdated and had a musty odor. Shower was warm at best. Got hit for a min and then back to warm. Bed and pillows were ehh. Not terrible but definitely not plush comfort.

This is a lovely, historic Inn with decent dining options but there are some inconveniences such as needing to go to the front desk to get ice and locked doors later in the evenings. The staff is very pleasant and helpful and the room well-appointed and comfortable.
