It was very good, nice surroundings but the smell when you enter the office and breakfast place is not good! They should put some air freshener or at least light a candle! But overall very good….

Misleading advertising. The jacuzzi wasn’t functional, was basically a regular bath thub. Dirty sheets. Full of bugs.

Nice property but not maintained properly. Weeds everywhere. Breakfast is such a disappointment, we had to have it outside. No egg, pancakes or sasauges. Bathtubs have stains. Curtains don't close properly.

Cute vintage outdated motel in beautiful setting

This is a cute vintage motel within a lovely natural park-like setting, and has a good sized outdoor pool - great for kids in the summer! Pet friendly. The entire premises is somewhat unkempt, but there is lots of grass and lawns and areas to sit and play/relax outside. Some rooms may have been updated, but ours was overly dated and worn/scratchd, and the bathroom wasn't cleaned properly. They offered a basic continental breakfast from 8-9, but we missed it because the window was too tight. I liked the grounds and potential this place has. The indoor pool area is incredibly vintage and fascinating with excellent potential, but it's very bizarre with plastic flowers and strange cheap plastic decor. I hope the new owners can spruce it up. We will check it out again next month because it's pet friendly and the grounds are lovely, but would advise asking to see the room first if possible. And request extra pillow, blankets, and towels too..

It was everything that was advertised, but nothing that was implied. Eg: It had a king size bed, but it was basically a cot. It had an indoor pool, but it was in poor repair and used way too much chlorine. It had a breakfast, but only toast, coffee, and juice. It had a gift shop, but everything smell old and was extremely expensive.
