The stay did not go exactly as planned. Throughout the evening there was something clawing at the ceiling in the room. It was just past 0100 when it started so there was really nothing we could do to change the situation. We left a message with management in the morning, without response. We will have to think twice before staying or recommending in the future.

Great location and nice spacious rooms. Would be better if it had more service given there is no store around to get water or breakfast. Restaurant has a good menu and the food is great but not always open. Beautiful property and grounds but pool was closed and there are no seating areas outside of you want to enjoy the gardens

Had a nice stay at the Inn at Zaca Creek. Room was spacious and well-appointed. Only issue was noise - I think it was the guest next door who was talking very loud at midnight and 7am but they do have earplugs in the room (Just didn't find them till the next day). Would recommend the hotel still!
