Spyglass Inn

Spyglass Inn

8/10 Good
"I love the location, the view and the staff and stay here every year. The only thing I would recommend is updating some of the furniture in some of the units and adding some useful pieces of furniture to the ADA unit 109. There was no table of any kind except one bedside table and the only seating was a very low to the floor old sofa that a person with limited mobility could not transfer in and out of therefore only seating was on the bed."
