Love staying here 😁😁
Shelly, 2-night trip

Great reimagined motel. Perfect for families. Owner was great. Food and drinks at bar were fabulous. Roy was a great server and bartender. Highly recommend this property!
Angie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

It was quiet and staff was very friendly. Check-in was easy and quick. I was thrilled to be able to plug in my EV car to charge overnight, even if was only into a 110 outlet - that’s more than 99% of the rest of the Lakes area offers! Bed was comfortable.

Classic Motor Motel, but updated. Overall okay stay, but rooms are small and overpriced. No storage or drawers, so we had to live out of our suitcases. Evening Bar with live music was fun. Very pleasant staff, and hardworking.
Steven, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cute little “motel” with so much character and charm! Customer service was top notch! Had an issue with some food, not only did they take care of it, they asked our opinion on what they could do to make it better! Breakfast is a little lacking. Pool was too cold to use but the outside areas are lovely! Fire pits, cornhole games and lots of seating! Definitely would recommend to others!
Nancy, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Apparently our stay was a little too early in the season so they are not not offering breakfast. We also found a glob of hair on the shower wall. Otherwise wise the staff was nice & offered great local options & the room seemed clean otherwise.

This place is a gem!!!!! I hope I get an opportunity to stay here again. For a small motel, it is absolutely perfect in every way. Every detail was just perfect. Well done!

The motel was quaint and the grounds well kept. The only negative was that the rooms were musty, not much air flow.
