Be aware that for spring/summer time there are often annual or bi-monthly events (farmer's markets, festivals, etc.) taking place here, so book in advance and be prepared for your date to possibly not be available. We booked ours when we did because the weekend before was a farmer's market and the weekend after was the Lavender Festival.

Overall the experience was good, and everything fit well.For us to rent that room for a Saturday was 600.00 with a 250.00 deposit. Compared to other places it was a good bargain.
