"The setting in the mountains was beautiful. While the room was adorable, quite unique, the beam in the ceiling of the room was quite low. I hit my head on it a few times!"

Note that grocery will close each night by 8P, no alcohol is sold past 6P and not too many dining options, but the Art Cafe was excellent! Great jumping off point for sites along the South Coast.
