This is a charming retro motor lodge. The space is small, but comfortable and well laid out. There is no on-site staff and check in is done electronically. It was a comfortable, quaint and quiet spot for an overnight stay.

Best Life Town

Betty Genes for breakfast and lunch was amazing good food and great service in a quaint atmosphere. And they were open on Sunday when many places weren’t. Ricardo’s is a must! The Safari was really cool and we can’t wait to see how it grows. The concert in the park was the reason we stayed and visited with old friends and it was fabulous and we will be back to stay again.
