Benjamin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Black bear, yes please!

What a beautiful hotel. The property is very well kept. The lobby is inviting and cozy. The chocolate covered pretzels at the desk were a nice treat after a very long drive. Check in was easy and the receptionist friendly. We were also offered sweet tea and chowder, it was broccoli cheddar at the time, complimentary. They also offered complimentary ice cream. The room was spacious and clean. All white linens makes for a very clean look. The hotel is pet friendly. I did not see any remnants for a pet anywhere so housekeeping does an amazing job! Proximity to many restaurants, attractions and the highway also makes this a perfect stop!!
