From the pictures I saw on Travelocity I was led to believe it was a country quaint with a river view. What we got was a DIY project with the view of the neighbors backyard junkyard. The kid that checked us in was very friendly and I will give them an A for cleanliness and friendliness. But they have a long way to go.

It’s okay.

The beds and rooms need to updated. One you play in the bed it’s as if your laying in a angle with you head up torso flat and legs back up. Rooms need to updated. It smelled like sewer in the room and outside. I just wish it was more updated and had better beds and bed frames.

Just what we needed for our unplanned stay w/dog

The Good: Guy at check-in was super friendly and helpful on where to park our trailer. The room was small, but very homey and sort of rustic. It was very clean and bed was comfortable. The view of the river was just great and being dog friendly was critical to us as we had our pup with us. Seems like many folks staying were repeat guests who all talked w/us and each other. The Not-So-Good: The bathroom was a bit tight but not too bad for one night. The biggest concern we had was security. The sliding door went out to a shared deck. It only had a U bolt to keep it locked, which in order to put the bolt in the door had to be open a little so you could easily stick a credit card in and pop the u bolt off. The front door was similar in that there was a gap you could easily access to pop the door lock open. Also, not the hotels fault but there was a guy smoking on the shared deck w/an ankle monitor on just looking in the sliding door, till we closed the drapes. We weren't too worried as we had a rather large dog and other personal protection with us. Bottom Line: Would we stay here again? YES we would. Good value, great location and view, and comfortable bed.

Our room and the bathroom were clean. Our bed was comfortable (the most important thing). The view of the river out of our back patio door was beautiful. The only problem was there were no cups or stuff to make coffee other than 1 regular and 1 decaf coffee. We were able to solve that problem in the morning. Gotta have that wake up coffee!

We enjoyed our stay. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. It is a little dated with a window unit for air. Not sure about heat. The temps were cooler outside but not cold. We loved sitting out the back door of our room by the river. The biggest concern was an electrical outlet that had a short in it.

Enjoyable stay

The motel wasn’t the most attractive outside but walked in the room and it was surprisingly clean! Comfortable beds, you could smell the clean comforter, freshly cleaned and enjoyed our stay! Will definitely stay again when needed 💙

They took my reservation and then, 30 minutes later, no one was there to give me a key to my room. I ended up driving 2 hours to go home.
