Each time I went to the bar there was no staff to take my order. I also didn’t see any Bud Heavy, which is my drink of choice.

Wonderful stay. Great area. My only complaint would be breakfast. Not many options. Our stay was 2 days and same meal was served.

Best Western Coach House
The counter in the room dressing area had not been wiped down when we got there. It was sticking and had crumbs on it. I washed it all down with a wash clothe. Otherwise the place was clean and neat inside and out

Room was very nice and bed very comfy. Clean, breakfast was great as was the pool. Fire and Ice has delicious food but some items can be pricey. Overall, a great, quiet stay!
