Ratings and reviews
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
We really enjoyed our stay. Was very hot on Saturday but fans and open windows cooled it down fast. Thank you for the welcome treats, an unexpected surprise. We would love to stay again if we are ever in the area. So much fun to see all the retro magazines, games and books. We even found old games shows on Buzzer to keep with the theme.

Beds were comfortable, even though it was hot during the day with windows open and fans it cooled down in the evenings. We enjoyed the outdoor space and the short walk to the lake.
