"We reserved a room with a garden tub, which was amazing. However, the breakfast was meager. For the price we paid, it wasn't what we expected. The staff was nice enough, the room clean. The property was not well maintained and the bed was too worn out."

Hot Tub! Tiny House Retreat in the Woods

8/10 Good

"Cute and clean place with beautiful hot tub! However it was not stated anywhere that it’s recommended to drive an off road vehicle as the 7 min long steep gravel pot-hole filled road to get in was a bit treacherous. This makes the location less convenient."
