"I will never stay at this property again. Upon arrival I was asked if I wanted them to charge card on file.. I clearly articulated no AND handed the card that I wanted charged! This facility placed a double hold on both cards without my consent, isn’t that illegal!"

"Great place to stay in a great location. Rooms are dated but it's okay, it's an older lodge. They were very clean. Everyone was super friendly. The outside of the building needs a little love, but don't let that fool you. Would absolutely stay here again!"
