“There's a real charm to this place that's hard to deny, especially with the sunsets putting on a nightly show. While the accommodations lean toward the rustic side, the friendly new owners are actively planning improvements, with comfortable beds being a welcome upgrade. It's a spot where the simple pleasures shine.”
