"This was a magical place! We brought my son and 2 friends, all 12 years old. All 3 boys LOVED our stay. Their review “I liked staying on the ranch and feeding the horses.” “It was really pretty being in the valley.” “I want to come back again.” We adults appreciated the cozy house. Leslie started a fire in the wood stove—so relaxing to watch it burn, plus it somehow heated up the whole house. The beds were comfortable and warm (though it was cold out at night!), the kitchen had all the...

The Dunes Hotel

The Dunes Hotel

8/10 Good
"Place was a renovated old motel style hotel from probably the 50s or 60's. Very well done, extremely clean place as well. Obviously they put alot into the cleanliness. Pool area very nice. But not in the best area of town, which is not their fault, but it is not a nice area to walk around in on most sides. It does connect via a main road to a main dining area with restaurants, etc. So that was nice to be walking distance. Overall an above average place that can't help certain things about itself but overall is worth the money and we would return."
