For a weekend getaway it’s a fair price. Not too far from home. We had some noisy neighbors that didn’t go to bed until late night.

Total dump. I believe the rooms were converted sheds. 2 night stay for 2 rooms and only stayed one night. No water pressure. TV didn't work. Door locks were not secure. Had to tie the doors closed from inside the room.

Loved the atmosphere and location. Dust on the walls and beams and smoke from nearby campfires came through and messed with my allergies.
