In other words, GO (unless you're an uptight jerk, in which case please leave this lovely place to those of us who want... More

Had a friend recommend This place for it's dining. The food was exceptionally good. A bountiful buffet of down-home cooking. The filet of beef and gravy was to die for, with fresh veggies galore. The place was explicitly clean and the staff is friendly and happy. I am definitely returning.

Another father and his 11 year old daughter were coming with us this year and I wondered if the trip would be as nice. I was not dissappointed. The staff is friendly and wonderful. It... More

King bed, fireplace,huge bathroom with jacuzzi for 2 and large shower as well as double sinks. But lousy water pressure in the shower !... More

Reminded me of my childhood vacations in the Adirondack mountains. Better than we anticipated, great value, and looking forward to coming... More
