Excellent

Clean, no frills motel. Old school. Staff was great, rooms were cozy and comfortable. Only concern was some damaged weather stripping at the base of the door allowing cold air to come in, but easily fixable. I’d stay there again.
It seemed very "ma & pa" in a good way. We would call the overall feel to be vintage also in a good way. With microwave and charming refrigerator/freezer along with a hair dryer, and nice flat screen it had all the modern amenities.
It was fine for a vintage facility. The rooms were clean, comfortable and quiet. There were dining options nearby, although no food was available at the lodge.
Excellent place to stay. I left my buddies jacket behind and they even called me and are shipping it to me. How’s that for service? BTW the hotel is a outstanding and fun place to stay. Very clean with great shower pressure
