On the edge of town

This is an old hotel, but we love the location and parking right by the door to our room is so handy. The staff is friendly, we have stayed multiple times. They are short on cleaning staff, so daily room cleaning was paused but they provided fresh towels which is really all that we needed.

Just ok.

Very old slightly charming motel. We enjoyed the pool! This motel could definitely use updating. The first room, the refrigerator didn’t work. The AC had not been turned on ahead of time, even though it was August. The second room, the refrigerator work, but the door wouldn’t close all the way so I had to put a chair up against it to keep it semi closed. The second room also the AC had not been turned on ahead of time.

Retro Vibe Awesome Stay

Wonderful stay! The room was spotless, and the check-in process was warm and welcoming. I especially enjoyed waking up to the peaceful view of deer right outside my window — such a lovely touch of nature. I would definitely stay here again!

Property was good. Pool far enough away from rooms that late evening soakers weren't intrusive. Most beneficial, would be inexpensive solar powered spot lights on entry signage after dark. Both sides of both signs illuminated for less than $100.
