Briars Country Lodge was a good choice for us we were going to a concert at Centennial Vineyards and the bus picks up from Briars. The lodge was competitively priced and whilst the room was clean and bed comfortable and had a pleasant view to the large pond, green lawn and trees thought the bathroom needed a makeover, water pressure was not great and shower head was basic, a few chips in the bath. The buffet breakfast was good, not the choices you get at a high end hotel but for $22 great value.
