This place could not have looked more different from the way it was described in these photos and reviews. We were shocked at the dilapidated condition of the exterior upon arriving. The paint on the building was peeling, the grounds were dirty and littered with broken stuff. It looked deserted. The pool, bocce ball court, fire pit and other features described looked as though they had fallen apart and been unused for a long time. The manager gave us a key to our room which we found to be unacceptable. My husband, who used to manage hotels, found the room to be unclean, unmaintained, dusty, dirty, and found melted water in the ice bucket. I was more disappointed that the room was not pretty or charming in any way. It was dark, and smelled musty. No sound of a rushing stream. We peeked in the windows to see if other rooms looked any better and they all looked the same. No lovely antiques in sight. We decided to leave and find somewhere else to stay, it was just too depressing. The manager said we would not be able to get our money back, which was not surprising. He repeated that the place is a rustic country inn. I just want to say that we have stayed at many rustic country inns, and we stayed at several on this particular trip, and this place is no country inn. It is a seedy run-down motel right on the highway. I wouldn't recommend that anyone stay there. I'm sorry we didn't take more pictures, we just wanted to get out of there and until I had time to look back at all the glowing reviews I couldn't understand how I had made such a bad mistake.
