Neat place and time of year to stay. Beautiful grounds. Not haunted, which was a bonus.

The accommodations were nice enough however they need to clean the fans filters as it blows so much dust around we all left with sore throats. The groundskeepers were very unwelcoming and on our case for every little thing from parking when we were just unloading to, walking on the grass. It is a public area but they didn’t want anyone to use it. They also kept complaining about how much work they had to do although we only saw them over water the grass.

Clean and comfy--this was a great place for our Carroll College Campus Ministry leadership retreat with nearly 30 of us there. The cookhouse had everything we needed to feed the crowd, and we really enjoyed the lovely grounds for walking around and quiet time. The groundskeeping staff was very hospitable and helpful as well while we there! Wish we could have had a campfire, but we'll have to catch a time out of wildfire season next visit!
