We had a problem with the sink not having hot water and the owner came right away to fix it and was very courteous. He even made sure we had reservations at the restaurant the owners of the property also own.

Process was very easy to check in and check out! Very nice place we liked that not all the bedrooms were upstairs due to we have older parents. Very nice area and nice neighbors. We stayed for the good guys car show and had classic cars it was nice not to have to worry about them being messed with and we parked off the road!
