What time is check-in and check-out?
Check in begins at 4:00 p.m. and check out is at 12:00 p.m. We are able to take requests for both an early check in and late check out. While we are unable to guarantee early access or delayed departure, we do welcome you to arrive at the property as early as you wish on the day of your arrival. If the room is not yet available, we are happy to store your luggage while you enjoy on-site amenities, our Bathhouse (available seasonally), or a trip into town. The same applies to the day of your departure. Should a late check out be unavailable, we are happy to store your belongings while you continue to enjoy the Inn for the afternoon.
