The layout is very nice! But. You must go back thru now and correct your spelling and punctuation!

I wont be doing that as just getting on the Internet is chore for me. I was the contractor, delivery woman for materials, architect, decorator , sewing machine goddess , made the floor screens but not the Coramandel screen in Guest suite (sofa area), landscaper, etc etc but tech stuff is not my thing.

Beautiful place! Wish I was still traveling up North a lot so I could stay there.

You have a great web designer....they put up with me!
 
1. Check the footer, there are 2 issues:
1.1. There's some code sticking out at the end of the page: " );
1.2. The horizontal scroll bar is active (because of the "Jump to Top" icon).
2. It is recommended that links have some :hover and :focus effects, such as changing the color of the element, adding an underline, etc. Currently most of your links throughout the website have no such effects.
3. I would change the wording of the "LINKS" menu item.
*4. I would try and do something about having "DIRECTIONS / RESERVATIONS / CONTACT" in the menu on the same line. It feels like these 3 could somehow be combined into a single page, though I know it works really well like this.
*5. The Policies page could be made a little less "business-speak". Maybe make it in 2 columns and put some cozy photos to the right of the text, make it a little more appealing to be on the page, instead of a long list of rules :)

1.2. Sorry for mentioning the wrong *cause of the horizontal scroll bar for the page. It is actually caused by this code for the header:
@media (min-width: 981px)
.et_fullwidth_nav #main-header .container {
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
padding-right: 30px;
padding-left: 30px;
}
Without a proper CSS reset, the padding is added to the total width. So the total width of the window becomes 100% + 60px.
Consider setting it to something like width 94%, padding-left: 3%, padding-right 3%, then the scroll bar will go away.

Great Thanks Dumitru but it was actually the logo size causing the issue.
