8.6/10 Excellent! (96 reviews)
"Property was older but well maintained. The owners were very friendly and helpful. They even brought us breakfast as we had to leave early. One downside was low voltage so our medical device wouldn’t work but otherwise we loved the atmosphere and peacefulness as well as the helpful staff."
