We had a great stay while attending a wedding there. Rooms were very clean, spacious and the beds were comfortable.
They had complimentary breakfasts in the am which was a nice touch. The saloon across the hwy was a neat environment with friendly service.
The gals at the front desk were lovely and accommodating.
Would definitely stay again.
