[Laura, 08/22/2019]The hotel is full of great mysteries. You can see the "Man Lands on the Moon" news article in the bar that was a highlight scene in Dumb and Dumber. Hint: ask to see their bourbon and whisky list. (It's a multi page thick book). They also have recently planted a new hedge maze in the front courtyard. Small now, but it will be epic in a few years.

Interesting stop - whiskey bar! The oldest part of the hotel is the light bar top.

Fun and creepy. Definitely go have a drink in the bar. Their whiskey list is a full book. They recently planted a new hedge maze. It should look awesome in years to come.
