We really liked this motel. The owners were a kind family who allowed us to use their personal water hose to rinse off our kayak. These owners have really made a nice motel business here.

Meh

Convenient but on the main road so noisy. Needs up-dating. The bed was comfortable. Bathroom needs a coat of paint-cabinet was old, peeling wood. Tub did not drain. Room's carpet was relatively new but needed a good cleaning. Light from the hall and room next door seeped under the doors. The "grab and go " breakfast was not good. We hit McDonalds' on the way out of town.

Nice place

We have stayed here several times. Beds and pillows are comfortable, very clean. Old tub/shower. Groundsare nice. Pool is clean, nice gazebo to sit under our chairs in the grass. It’s old but for the money it’s worth it.

A clean, well run, well arranged, conveniently located, older property. Nothing modern, but everything you need and everything where it should be. Comfortable beds and the rooms are well accoutremented.

Firmest mattress ever.

It was clean, but the mattress was the firmest I've encountered, and I used to be a bedding manager for AV.
