Starlight Haven Hot Springs
We loved our stay! The hot tub was a great addition! Plan to drive in during the day! It's really dark and the road winds around.

Family Fun House - Pet Friendly-
The Barn House was very nice, well-kept up, and in a nice area. The hosts were very responsive and answered any questions we had. It is also very dog friendly which was perfect for our road trip.

Decent place for a very reasonable price. Nice staff, eager to please. Room was fine, but floors in lobby area were not clean. Terrible first impression with dead shrubs at entry.
