New facility with very cozy beds. Walking distance to downtown Woodstock. For the room price, would have been nice to offer a continental breakfast. Parking is some what limited, so don’t arrive too late. Housekeeping woke us up at 830am to ask if we were checking out. May want to invest in Do Not Disturb signs for rooms.

We arrived later in the evening so we did not actually interact with staff in person, however, the communication with staff through text worked great. We stayed in the River House and the room was very nice, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the adirondack chairs outside of our room overlooking the river. The location was a short walk into the downtown shopping area. Virtual check-in and check-out was easy. We would definitely stay here again. The only recommendation I would offer is to provide an option of decaf coffee and creamers at the coffee bar in the building for the late comers who might enjoy an evening coffee.

This is a perfect family oriented spot for visiting downtown Woodstock. We stayed in one of their family suites. It was spacious and comfortable without being ostentatious. Loved the details in the outdoor space--well tended plants and flowers, as well as, fire pits and Adirondack chairs to hang out by the river.
