The resort is beautiful, very well managed, and very clean. The owner of the establishment is wonderful. Customer service is excellent. The only down side is the quite loud lumber mill across the river with machinery that runs 24/7.

We enjoyed our stay in the River suite. We could see the river from the porch and enjoyed a quick walk to the beautiful river. We played a few games of jumbo yard sized Connect Four, and lounged in the hammocks. Would stay again. Thank you.

Not what I expected in a small town. This is a well thought-out place with very nicely thought out rooms. We stayed in the Lake room. (no lake view) But it was quiet, the bed was comfortable, nice bathroom with soft towels, with a nice deck over looking the woods. The restaurant has great food. The grounds are beautiful. Highly recommend it.
