Warning! Don't be fooled by the vacant front office like I was. I showed up after dark and from what I could see the place was deserted. I ended up making another reservation at a nearby hotel. The next day I drove by this property and it looked the same. As I was driving out I saw a small arrow near the exit which was not visible at night. I followed the arrow and found an operating hotel. No idea if the hotel is any good but they don't seem interested in notifying guests that there is a hotel behind the front office.
