The staff was so kind and the property was charming. It’s a family owned hotel rather than a franchise. We enjoyed overlooking the little stream. The weekend food made to order was delicious. Great experience all around. Mamas chicken kitchen a few minutes away was a great spot for the whole family to eat.

A very cute and simple motel that is conveniently located away from the busy area but just across the street from the free trolley so it was easily accessible. The weekend breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly. We enjoyed sitting and watching the water off of our balcony and all of the fireflies in the evening.
