I especially enjoyed the food served on-site. It was superior to anything I have ever tasted and I am 68 years old. The staff were so warm and comforting. Thank you Driftwood, the kitchen staff and bar staff.

Clean, easy check in with friendly staff, reasonable price for the size of the room and age of the property. Only downside for me was the lack of a breakfast option as the onsite restaurant does not open until 11am and I did not have a car to find an alternative.

It's very dated but clean so it is a bit of a time travel back to the '60s or '50s. This area and small town are beautiful all year round with many conveniences. The front desk staff lady who checked me in was very genuinely friendly. A good stay and great bang for the buck.
