This property is the perfect place to stay in Nederland! It is walking proximity to great restaurants and even a grocery store if you need it! Just to the side of the property you can pick up a nice walking trail that leads you to the reservoir for fishing or just a nice walk. The staff are wonderful and the hotel has a nice area over looking the town where you can play many board games that the hotel has for guests! My children loved their stay here!
Great outdoor space!

Great employees ! Quaint property built with logs in a beautiful location but the mattress was really bad- very soft.... Breakfast waffles were amazing and coffee nice and hot. But for the bed we would return. The bathroom was immaculate and the tub/shower had railings which was very helpful.
