“Away from the city's bustle, this inn has a Kentucky-style charm with horses grazing on its grounds. I especially appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as the hardwood floors in the rooms, and the access to both mountain and river views, plus a bourbon lounge creates a relaxing setting. It is a particularly solid choice for those seeking a peaceful retreat.”
