Cute Motel

Lovely little spot. Very quiet and a bit hidden. Check in was very quick and the stay was nice. We were just in town for the night, and it was a perfect fit.

The property has a nice gazebo for outside seating. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Other than that this facility needs a lot of TLC and is in poor technical shape.

This place is kind of old school, and adorable. Neat as a pin, and way quieter than a regular hotel.

The room was clean, and the adjacent parking space was convenient. The bathroom could use an update. It is very small. The road noise was a negative.

It was a great spot for me and my family to lay our heads for the night. It truly would’ve been a 5 star review if the bathrooms were scrubbed down a little better. Unfortunately the pool hours (11am-5pm) didn’t work for our quick little stay. The outdoor area was beautiful at night filled with fireflies!

The room was clean and comfortable. We had the memorable experience that a transformer blew and burst into flames on a telephone pole nearby. The electricity went out and there was no running water. Thankfully the power came back on at 1 am. Interesting experience but we were safe and warm!

Small roadside motel. Doesn’t look like much from the outside, but room was spacious and clean, and management was super courteous , friendly, and accommodating. Would stay again !

I really liked the layout and decor. Even though it is your basic small motel room the furniture is sleek and had room and surfaces for spreading out as we do for even a short stay. Clean and comfy!

Whispering Winds was our option for a couple of nights while in town for a wedding. Looking for a more cost effective stay, they were a great option. It was easy to check in and out and within a 3-5minute drive to all we needed.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great experience at Whispering Winds! The staff was super friendly and the check in process was quick. This is a very cute little roadside motel - the rooms are more like tiny bungalows than a hotel room. Everything was clean and well cared for. The whole place is a little dated but honestly, that really added to the charm for us. Our only complaint (and it's a small one) is that the walls are paper thin, so you can here everything going on outside very clearly. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a budget friendly, cute little spot!

Eclectic property. Manager apparently lives on site. Communicates through Ring doorbell. Easy check in/out. Convenient to cute town of Skaneateles. Close to Syracuse. Happy I stayed there.

I liked the place we were staying in but definitely bring your own blanket cause they only give you one. The bed was huge and and comfy and the room felt like a cabin which was cool and it was a pretty big room. The only thing was the bathroom was a little dirty when we got there but just the shower. I would stay here again!
