Very clean and well maintained. Comfortable bed and room. Very helpful friendly staff. Nice bonfire in fire pit on weekends. I would happily stay here again.
This is a quaint old style motel. It reminds me of traveling with my grandparents on vacations in the 70's. Except this was much nicer. The motel was very clean and you can tell the owners work really hard to keep it fresh and beautiful. The staff was very nice. I would definitely come back here again.
From the greeting of our host to picking up our ice packs that they had kept frozen for us when we left----this was the perfect place to stay, I can't say enough for the cleanliness of this motel. It has been lovingly cared for and is like new. Every need had been anticipated. It was quiet with lovely grounds. We will remember this place and stay there when we're in the area.
From the first view to the first visit everything was exactly as promised . The rooms were extremely clean as were the grounds and buildings. The fire pit is a great place to hang out and watch the stars. The pool area is immaculate and well stocked. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely be back again.
The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Room was very clean for an older motel which was a plesant surprise! We will definitely be coming back on future visits.
