Cute!
Cute property that's secluded and quiet. Loved that it was dog friendly and would have loved to explore more if it wasn't raining! Would be great for a girls trip or a couples weekend.

Room not available at check-in time
Check-in definitely was not a good start to this trip. Arrived at 4:15pm for check -in and I was advised to wait a few minutes while the room inspection was completed. It was not until 4:53 that we were able to get our keys. Checked a couple of times with the front desk in the meantime, but didn't seem to speed up anything.
