I was very disappointed for what we expected and for what they offer for breakfast! No scramble eggs! Only cold boiled egg. Their biscuits and gravy was not good! The couple donuts they had tasted like old!

Favorite place for a girls' night out

The staff were pleasant, professional, and going above and beyond. We stay here twice a year, but this year was the best ever. Walks on trails, firepit, shopping, endless fun!

There are several common areas where you can just sit and relax, Listen to the music, play board games or just visit with friends. Staff was very friendly and you could ask them about things to do around the Inn. They have walking paths and a pickle ball court. Great breakfasts. We had a very relaxing and fun time
