We just recently attended the Harry Packer Murder Mystery Weekend and could not have been more pleased. To say the staff was friendly and accommodating is the understatement of the year.

We stayed in the carriage house next to the mansion which was nicely appointed and very comfortable. The murder mystery is still a mystery to me.
