river views and great food
warm welcomeriver viewreally good serviceearly closure
i arrived and received a warm welcome they showed me the parking area i confirmed dinner and breakfast times plus i chose rooms the team recognized the river was rising fast so they moved cars to higher ground this prevented us from being stranded. the owner drove us through the woods to reach our cars it showed service beyond expectations. breakfast was amazing served even with difficult circumstances.
the bar closed rather early at 10pm it was disappointing since there were few alternative activities available i needed to drive to find other options.

good choicessmall roomradiator adjustment
The breakfast was acceptable with some good choices available.
The room was small. It was a Large double room, but felt cramped. Staff gave NO information about room service unless specifically asked. That was annoying. The room was also too warm, and I couldn't adjust the radiator.
