Stayed for a couple days for a wedding next door at the Alpine. House was clean, well maintained, and a pleasure to stay at. Highly recommend if needing a place in the area
Just a few steps to the rail trail. You need to lift your bike. Very clean, well located, bath spa is awesome after the ride. Can be noisy with road and carpark nearby. Fire pit is great with wood supplied, plenty of space inside and outside. Easy to park and secure your bikes.
