It was a cute cottage with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a little front porch! All we needed since I wasn’t coooking! The couple who owned it were adorable ! I felt bad for them because they could find no help so they had to clean the cottages themselves!

I had made reservations here because it looked great online and I wanted to stay in a cabin. When I got there, I was given a room in the motel part which is right on the busy road. Too noisy for me as I’m a light sleeper and even with windows closed I could hear the cars go by (and I like sleeping with windows open. It also has a slight smell of mold which I’m allergic to. So I had to leave. The woman who owns it with her husband was very sweet though and I hope I didn’t hurt her feelings.

No amenities in room. No coffee, iron. No breakfast. Only coffee in office. Beds are not great. Shower stall is tiny! Location is good. A couple runs the property with no staff so no room cleanup. It was clean when we arrived but be prepared for no amenities. A no frills place!
