Pros:

The facility is old and kind of ugly, but it is clean. And fun as heck. They had a great band outdoors in a glamping area and the bartenders were funny and nice

Pros:

This hotel made me smile as I was walking in the charming hotel doors. The mums and beautiful elegant lobby is so inciting. If you get a cup of tea or unlimited free coffee you can lounge by the window enjoying the change of foliage. Dog friendly hotel and grounds. Beautiful👍

Pros:

We had a room on the ground floor with a terrace that led out to the grounds which was wonderful. Very friendly and helpful staff. Bedding was comfortable. Only two complaints: water pressure less than ideal and the soundproofing was poor. Likely because it’s an old property but when other guests talk outside or close their doors in the morning it woke me up every time.

A needed week of relaxation
Pros:

We just really enjoyed the stay--the grounds (sitting in a gazebo for morning coffee), the concerts and food trucks in the "back yard", and the quiet. It was very relaxing. We are just sorry we did not get to utilize the on site spa.
