Wonderful place to stay! Everything inside was really well marked so you didn’t have to go digging around for stuff. Beds were really comfortable like other people have said! Close to Main Street, as well as the river. Host was great at communicating— offered recommendations of things to do/see, & helped with communications in general. Highly recommend!
