Cozy by the creek

Cozy room with nice view of Sutton creek. Staff very friendly. Emily makes a fantastic breakfast. The glamping domes look like a great retreat too.
Jeanine, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed in the rain song room in the back. Very cute and clean, with a balcony that overlooked the river. The staff went over and above with an issue with a neighbor when I requested help. Staff was very friendly and accommodating throughout my stay.I loved the cute dining room for breakfast. It was $10, But that's a good price nowadays. The property is old and the living area of my room got a little warm during the excessively hot day, but plenty cool in the bedroom to sleep. Having an EV charger for free next door was an added bonus. I would definitely stay again
