Hotels Near Our House:

There are two that are convenient to our home; they seem to have very similar rates.  If you don't need access to a swimming pool, we'd recommend the Woodcrest (which is nicer, but actually slightly cheaper).  They are right next to each other, so don't get confused when you arrive!
