We really enjoyed our time here. We didn’t realize when we booked here that they accept dogs and we really enjoyed meeting everyone’s pups! The staff was friendly and helpful and the pool and hottub were a huge bonus after walking a million steps a day up hill. The building is really unique and picturesque and we would definitely stay here again.
