The Emerald Boutique Stays
Room was beautiful and extremely clean. Outside sitting area could use a rinsing off. You can easily hear people/sounds in the room next door. Internet connection for TV was inconsistent. Customer service was very responsive and helpful. Wonderful location. Overall, I would stay here again.

Circa 1785
Not a fan of the 1 vehicle per guest as I was meeting someone there. Wish the fireplace would've actually worked. Bathroom could use some kinda heat. Other than that, not a bad place to stay.
